The mounting to the front axle/springs is quite obivous, but I am not sure how the bar is mounted to the frame using the brackets provided. Could anyone out there who has a panel with a front sway bar take a few reference photos for me? If so, please send them to [email protected]Thanks in advance | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Randy, I am not sure if the shop repair manual has much info in it or not but I do know the assembly manual does. It may be worth the $25 bucks to purchase one.....but in the meantime see if you year is in the online manuals here. http://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/ | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 2,557 | What year of panel is the sway bar from ?
Might help to determine if it will work.

Better off to get a sway bar from CPP and bolt it on to front beam, drill 3 holes in chassis - jobs a good un !
Tightens the front end up nice - does squeek a bit though ! | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 21 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2009 Posts: 21 | Is this from a 55-59 Panel?
If it is and you end up not using it I would be interested in buying the Bushed Bar and Pins that connect the Sway Bar to the Chassis.
