Question about Option for my 68 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**68Custom** · 05-12-2002, 12:20 PM

I was checking out my permenant record on the glovebox door today, and I saw this option:

4F59AA Front Stablizer EQ

Can i get some info on what this is, what it does, and where on the front its located? Thanks!

Sway bar. You have(had) a factory sway bar.

It's not what you buy, it's what you build!!

cant miss it if you glance under front of truck, it is a big bar that extends from lower control arm all the way across the truck over to the other and hangs down in the way. keeps truck nice and sturdy around those curves and quick turns so that truck doesnt fall over on its side, or feel like its gonna anyways,.

Thanks for the help, yes i still have the sway bar only it needs new bushings from what i see. Is that a simple process of just unbolting, changing out and bolting back on or is there more to it than i am not seeing? Thanks again for the help!

unbolt the bolts if they will come loose, soak the hlel out of them with good soaker, not WD40... if not then just torch them and go get new hardware at NAPA, new hardware is very inexpensive. all they are is simple common 3/8" bolts nuts washers/

good luck.
