i just added a sway bar to the front of my '71. i used 2 short sections of 2x4 box tubing, traced the contours of the front cross member on one closed end of each piece, cut the trace out with a plasma cutter, lined up a set of brackets with new bushings, drilled holes on the opposite closed end, and bolted it in. I was done in about 3 hours including coffee drinking. I plan on using ORD disconnects as well. -steve
