Sway Bar Front - Add 65 Satelllite - Non Factory

[stanhope55]

What kit/vendors are you all using for this. I need all the conversion hardware for the kframe and lower shock tower as my lower control arms are not factory for this. I assume I need to drill holes in kframe as well ?

Any install pictures would be awesome...

thx

i use a Firmfeel on my 65 coronet. came with everything. made a super difference in cornering.

The early B-body factory sway bar was a total bolt in piece. No tabs on the control arms needed. No holes to drill on the K frame to add one. Just a FYI post.

I got Hellwigs on several cars and trucks. Awesome product. Used Adco's on my 64 440 ok but wish I had purchased Hellwigs(adco's required drilling, not as nice of product or hardware). Do a search I remember there was a lot of info here and online on the subject. Here's one http://www.forbbodiesonly.com/moparforum/threads/front-sway-bar-options.86218/#post-910201875 search box is upper corner.

For those using Hellwig are you running discs up front with forward (facing front bumper) mounted calipers.... I heard there may be an issue with steering if forward mounted calipers ??

Well i got Drums, but there is not much room left.
Maybe an inch on each side.

Well I have ordered a classic industries kit for conversion to disc and it is apparently supplied by the right stuff company.62 - 74 b body kit.

I tried to find out from right stuff if the calipers are front or rear loaded but they were not sure... I found that very weird.

Does anyone have these brakes installed and can tell me if the calipers are front or back installed on the rotor.

Got the answer from right stuff... calipers can be front or rear mount on rotor.
