Re: 83' Front Cross Member in 64' K10

I just put a '74 sway bar in my '63. I used a piece of 2"x4"x1/8" square tube that I had laying around. My biggest concern is that it would look hokey. It turned out pretty good looking and matches the crossmembers that I installed to hang my rear mounted fuel tank (I have a few pics of those on my '63 spring swap thread). 4 bolts attach it to the frame and 4 bolts attach the sway bar to the cross member. It took about 3 hours to build it, another hour to install it and it works really good. It does not look stock but I don't think it looks rinky dink either. If you want a few pics, I'll get them tomorrow. Just let me know.
