front sway bar question
I am looking for a front sway bar for my 62 c10 with a 63 front X member. I have tried 2 different bars and they do not reach in far enough to reach the lower A frame.
What are others using for the front for their 62? |

Re: front sway bar question
I used a sway bar off a square body on my 65.. The 63 crossmember and upper/lower control arms are the same

Re: front sway bar question
There's some threads here about that issue with the 60-62 trucks. I'll see if I can find one.

Re: front sway bar question
After reading the information I got here I completed my install. I bought a sway bar from LMC #34-2501. It is actually a CCP part #CCP7423 for a 63 -67 c10. POL has a bar made for the 62 and it reaches in 2 " further than the one I have but I couldn't return it so here are some pictures how I installed mine.
