Sway Bar and Air Ride - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Android04** · 05-01-2018, 01:53 PM

I recently installed my air ride setup and absolutely love it. Still adjusting to it and playing with the psi to drive around on. But I feel like the body roll got worse with the air ride and shorter front shocks.

So I'm curious anyone have suggestions for a front sway bar? I'm looking at a CPP Bar at the moment but wanted to get some suggestions before I order. What about OEM's that fit; if so what year? Which end links?

Truck is a 1965 C10 SWB, cupped lowered arms, shock relocators in the back, CPP Track bar, 2600 Bags all 4 corners, shortened front shocks.

Thanks Everyone

I don't have an answer for the specific fit but do you have each bag set on separate valves?

Get a sway bar from a late '70s 3/4 ton Chevy. They are thick, inexpensive, and easy to find bushings. You will need the frame mounting brackets for a lowered truck, however.

No each bag is not on separate valves. Front are on one and the rear are on one. I’ve since ordered two more valves and another gauge to better balance out the corners.

Thank you; I will see what I can find at the local salvage yards

That will make a huge difference!

Well I stumbled upon this yesterday and went ahead and ordered me a CPP kit. It was only $118 shipped so I went for it!

I will update on the difference once it's installed.
