Put on my 1 1/4 bar - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Great handling improvement, but did stiffen up the ride a bit. Looks like I am going to have to invest in springs now. The fronts are sagged and the drivers side sat a little lower.
With the bar on it sits level again but puts it in a bind all the time. With the front being lower it also puts the bushings for the bar at the A-Arm in a bind.
I used poly bushings from the local parts store, I think they are MOOGs.

Paid $40 for the bar ad the yard and have about $25 in bushings.
