It bolted right on and the difference in the the handling is GREAT and much safer in the corners! This was the best add on feature I have ever installed bar none. The kit was purchased from CCP and bolted right up in two hours.....very sweet! Try it you'll like it!

Thanks

I've got them on both ends of the '55. I'm not gonna say it corners like a sports car, but it does handle the corners very well for an old solid axle leaf sprung truck. Add a set of decent gas shocks (I'm running Gabriel Red Riders) and you'll be set.

Bill that's what I did new shocks with the new sway bar its the only way to fly.
Wrench...they showed up real quick and I ordered from their web site. The instructions that come with the sway bar are almost unusable they are too small and the parts are not numbered. I downloaded the pictures and the install article by Leon Corley courtesy of Chevytrucks.org ..THANKS, Steve | | | | | Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 157 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2015 Posts: 157 | LONBOX55,
