Camaro Rear Sway Bar Adapter Kit - Who makes one?

Does anybody have the ability to make up a kit of parts to adapt the 3rd gen Camaro Rear Sway Bar to our trucks? I have one off an '87 Firebird, and would like it done right the first time, so if anyone can make one of these kits, or give me detailed instructions how to make one, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

yeah, I put one on my 69. I can tell you how to do it. I use to have a homepage describing how to do it, but i haven't checked it in forever to see if it still worked. I will check it and see if it works.

72c10step,

Check with neonlarry. He sent me some great photos, partslist, and directions, and he actually had most of the parts for the kit. I still have not done it, but great directions and photos that really help alot.

70longbed,

I did try to PM neonlarry, but didn't get a response.

Low69CST,

I do have a few questions, but I don't know if you can help. They pertain to making the bar bolt-on like neonlarry did, where you welded the brackets to the axle.

I can unbolt the bar from the rear end. I welded them on to make them more sturdy. I just welded the sadles on and replaced the u-bolts with grade 8 one inch bolts. But I guess you could do either.
