Re: 60-62 Sway bar

I installed the front one on my 62 and it improved the ride so much.

Did you mock it up to see if things looked like they were going to align okay?

No rush. I was curious more than anything.

Re: 60-62 Sway bar

After reading the information I got here I completed my install. I bought a sway bar from LMC #34-2501. It is actually a CCP part #CCP7423 for a 63 -67 c10. POL has a bar made for the 62 and it reaches in 2 " further than the one I have but I looked at Sleepy Sals post too late. I couldn't return it to LMC so here are some pictures how I installed it.

Nice work! What's the deal with the grease zerk on the stabilizer bar mount?

Re: 60-62 Sway bar

They tell you to grease the bushing for smooth operation and less squeaking. It did make it easier to move the bar into position.

Re: 60-62 Sway bar

Thanks! I've worked under thousands of cars (not so much since the '80s) and never seen that.
