Re: Referencing: How to install a 73-87 swaybar into a 60-72 for cheap!

With the stock sway bar brackets, the end of the sway bar will be resting nearly level in a neutral position in the control arm bushings at normal ride height.

Jacking the truck up allowing the control arms to hang on the sway bar twists the bushings up out of alignment. Using lowered mounting brackets will do the same thing to a lesser extent, by raising the center of the bar higher than normal at rest.

Fyi - the TX FF link isn't working.
