sway bar

[motorhead446]

Hello all, I bought a used front sway bar for my 66 coronet. Im looking for some pics of an installed bar in a car. Im looking to fab the brackets for the mounts. Any help here is much appreciated.

Have you checked..www.firmfeel.com? They have a few installed pictures on their site.

Firm Feel has bolt in end link mounts for the lower control arms. The bar should have came with the correct clamp for the K frame. The K frame clamp is simply bolted to the K frame. You can mock it up, drill holes and clamp.

This is the Firm Feel set-up on a 65--identical installation for your car.

Heads up! May not apply to your car, but when I was looking for a sway bar for my 65 Coronet, I found there were two different bars. One for cars that came with a factory sway bar and another part number for those that didn;t. My 65 Coronet did NOT have a factory bar so I had to order a different bar because the lower control arms didn't have the tabs for the end links nor the holes in the K-member for the bushings. Make sure you get what you need.

they are the same bar !!! one kit just comes with a weld on or bolt in bracket to put on the car .

if you looks at my picture you can cinda see the little bracket right behind the sway bar link mounted to the controll arm, small "L" shaped bracket

Im not sure i have the correct bar, it does not have the long "tails" like the pictures posted here. At best it would have to go under the the center of the k frame or thru it. I will try to post a picture.

moparstuart, does your bar go thru the K frame?

That style goes thru the k-frame. The other style has a hump in the center that the radiator core support bracket goes under.

mine is for a 70 , early b bodies will be a little different

You can use a earlier style sway bar like what I have mentioned above on a b or e body if thats all you can find.
