Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step
The sway bar is in. Used some scrap material to make a couple of 13 degree wedges to correct the angle mismatch between the A-arms and the U-brackets. With the bolts tightened to 40 ft-lbs., the bushings stay in place like they're supposed to. I have no idea how much the bar moves when cornering or navigating uneven terrain, but I'll just have to keep an eye on it once the truck is on the road. My main concern is that the end of the bar on the driver side is flush with the back of the bushing. I hope it can't deflect enough to pull out of the bushing. The passenger side has about 1/4" sticking out the back of the bushing so I'm less concerned about it. Fingers crossed!
