sway bar question

[redbaron69]

i am replacing my front crossmember in my 69 with a 73 crossmember.(for the disc swap). my 69 has the factory sway bar, will it work on the 73 crossmember? thanks

Sway bar From 73+ will fit (with all the squarebody brakcets) you'll have to drill a rivit somehwere tho

I just installed one on my 65 that i pulled from an 86 3/4 ton from salvage yard. 1" Bar. bought 4 Moog blue bushings for $20 at Advanced Auto. Bolted it right to the frame-no brackets. had to use some ratchet straps and jack to compress bar a little bit. Drilled out the 2 rivits on rad support. (1 at a time). You will need to drill two additional holes into frame for top mounts. Used the existing holes on the lower A arms. took about 2 hours total. I am running the 2.5 drop spindles. cost less than 50 bucks.
