sway bar mount?
I have a 1967 C10 frame with no sway bar mounts. I am going to be installing a front sway bar. I am running 2" dropped springs with CPP dropped modular spindles and PB forward control arms.
So do I need the factory height mounts or the lowered(closer to the frame) aftermarket mounts? Thanks, Nate

Re: sway bar mount?
Of those choices, the lowered mounts are what you want...however you can also just mount the bushing brackets directly to the frame depending on your specific geometry. Mock it up first with some clamps so you don't waste your $$$. I've found with the say bars that what I think is going to work doesn't usually...have to be flexible (haha).
Stock bar or aftermarket? Beware the CPP bar hit my drag link on my very low '71 which caused the pitman arm to get destroyed. The factory ones have a bend that clears better.

 I bought a Musclebar from Craigslist. http://www.ridetech.com/store/1963-1...musclebar.html I just read through the directions on the ridetech website and they say to attach the bushing directly to the frame rail  Thanks Nate
