Front & Rear Sway Bars

I bought Front & Rear Sway Bars for a 72 SWB fom Brothers. I have no factory mounting brackets. It appears that the front will hit the tie rods if install by the instructions. On the rear it appears that it will hang down to low and catch on everything. Please Help

Re: Front & Rear Sway Bars

for the rear you could have used a camaro sway bar cheaper and mounts high not low. Heres the link for that installation.....http://www.low69cst.freeservers.com/CamaroBar.htm For the rear sway bar I paid $45.00(ebay). Thanks low69cst

Re: Front & Rear Sway Bars

I just installed mine from CPP (Classic Perform) they were a pain to install but once installed they came out awesome. The back does seem a bit low nut it is right there with the real differential.
I am posting some picts of them hopefully it will help.
