Who has sway bar questions? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Tx Firefighter · 10-10-2003, 04:07 PM

I see a lot of people on here asking about sway bars and sway bar installation.

Tomorrow, I'm going to be putting a front sway bar on my truck. My truck never had a sway bar, so it will need brackets and all.

So, the question is, if I take the time to photo document the whole job and post GM part numbers and prices for the brackets and clamps and such, who would be interested?

I want to guage interest before I go out of my way to do this.

Moderator, would you like to make this a FAQ? I'll get all the details that someone needs to do the whole job.

Let me know.....

Please! I'd find it useful, and I'm sure others would too.

Even if it's just to geek out on, I like to see stuff like this happen.

Thanks,
Piper

Yes. And if the pictures do not look good and if you need to do it twice my truck is available.

Alex Hayley · 10-10-2003, 06:56 PM

I would be interested...

Tx Firefighter · 10-10-2003, 09:36 PM

All right then.

Tomorrow, I'll do the duty and try to get it all put together for tomorrow night.

I already called my buddy at the GM dealer and got the part numbers and prices for the pieces.

I would like to see it. Has your truck been lowered? Mine has and I was wondering what the difference would be.

rustyold72 · 10-10-2003, 10:03 PM

Go for it, mine will need the same thing (along with thousands of other bits and pieces

)

Tx Firefighter · 10-10-2003, 10:03 PM

Yes, my truck is dropped pretty deep.

I'll be installing the Early Classic Enterprises raised swaybar mounts, but I also took pictures and got part number and price for stock bracket. My post will clearly show the differences, as well as what a deeply lowered truck looks like with both stock and raised swaybar mounts.
