Anyone have Evo Sway bar rubbing?

Anyone have problem evo Sway bar rubbing? I installed the bars and there is a "clunking" noise coming from the front bar. Everything is tight, but there is a little paint chipping off the bar on both sides. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced any problems like this?

By rubbing I mean that the front bar is hitting one of the suspension arms in the front.

Yeah,

I had the same problem. I e-mailed Ben and they sent me a new swaybar with slightly different geometry and I haven't had a problem since.

NMM-

When do you hear the clunking? Driving into dips and over speed bumps? I also have this kind of noise, but my car is too low for me to take a look at the sway bars. Just wondering if it might be the same thing.

Tom - That is exactly when I hear the noises. Basicly a clunking sound.
