sway bar conundrum
« on: March 08, 2017, 06:11:58 AM »
The bar on my 87 C20 has rubber bushings on the end, as well as two in the center section. All of the parts I see for sale, bolt to the control arm on the ends. Any information would be appreciated!

Assuming a 1 1/4" diameter bar, Prothane 7-1102.

It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

 Thank you for the replybut the bushings are not the issue. I would like to replace the bar itself. A search is no joy.

Until recently Hellwig marketed an OEM style albeit stiffer bar.  At present, you may need to cruise the junk yards for a replacement.
