Smile WTB 4X4 sway bar for my 72 K20

Hi,
Looking to improve my 1972 3/4 ton 4x4 trucks handling. I understand that the 73 and up front sway bars bolt up to a 72 so thats what I am looking for.

Thanks in advance

Bud

I have the set up for your sway bar. I just did this to my 72 3/4 ton 4x4. It takes the sway bar, the front cross member, the sway bar mounting brackets, and the upper u bolt plates. I can send you all of this for $85 plus shipping. Thanks, Ray

Hi Ray,

I was expecting to need all the components you listed but not replace the front crossmember? The price sounds good but it sounds heavy! Can you give me the cost to ship to my home 55357 or to my work (with loading dock)651 campus Drive St Paul, MN 55112. Shipping via Greyhound to Mpls Mn is also an option.

I am also very interested in your opinon on how much it improved your handling.

Bud

If you don't replace the crossmember then you will have to fab a mount for the front sway bar bushings, i'm doing to on my 68 and it doesn't look that bad. I did buy all new bushings from Energy though...

you will need all of the other parts as he stated though.
