Sway bar options
 
Hi Guys, years ago i installed a 1" sway bar off of a 67-72 chevy truck on my 70 gmc. it seemed to help but as time went by i wasent that impressed. what was offered on these trucks from the factory, besides my 1". 350/350 it has good shocks and tires. thanks for any info. brown 70

i think some guys are using ones off the 3/4 tons. i believe there 1 1/4". there are plenty of hefty aftermarket ones. they can get pricey, but i wouldn't go cheap on one. it's overlooked alot, but i think it's a very important piece.
an internet search will show up alot of different options but you'll get a better deal from a vendor off this site. wait a few more hours and a vendor will probably chime on this thread.

Go to the junkyard, find a 3/4 (1 ton perferbly) 67-87 truck pull the swaybar, the 2 brakcetss that are bolted to the A arm, and try to get the 2 brackets that are rivited to the frame as well.

Go to orielly get some matching moog bushings and some paint and it'll bolt rite up walah biggest difference you will do to your truck
