Re: [FWDLK] Stabilizing influences...



as far as the imperial sway bars... they are too wide to use as a direct bolt-on for 57-9 plyms...  tried it,  what does work however, are 65-68 full size chrysler sway bars [for 57-9 dod/plym]  the spread and strut bar angles are on the money, use the same end links that encompass the strut rod itslef, the standoffs are formed on the sway bar, so all that is needed as far as fabrication goes is to use 2 versabar 90s, or make your own standoff that bolts to the inside of the frame rails.  did it 5 times already...  right down to my daily driver 59 fury....   parted a couple of "L"'s and plenty of ny'ers and newports - kept all the swaybars for this purpose....  use a nice set of new shock bushings on the standoff/links through your new frame brackets.   use a unibit to drill the outside of the framerail [facing frt tires] large enough to insert a socket through the frame to the backside of the inner framerail, where you will bolt on your 90degree standoff perch-  if you know how to weld, weld it on, and weld a gussett on one end,   depending on whether or not the body is off the frame or not determines whether i weld or bolt 'em.
 
if someone wants pics....  i can prob find some or go take a few when i get a chance to
