CCP tubular trailing arm sway bar bracket

[checkmate211e]

Looking for anyone who has CCP tubular trailing arms and has modified the trailing arms or found brackets to use the rear sway bar. I had the sway bar bolted up on the OE trailing arm I-beams and it was simple to install on my 71. Thanks

CPP sells a bracket kit to install the rear sway bar with their tubular tailing arms I think it is like $49.

Thanks! TTA-SBIK? Is that the part number? Do you know of anybody that has used these?

[Tennypicou1]

Yes that's the kit. I do not know anyone that used it yet. I will be soon when my parts get in.

[checkmate211e]

Awesome. Can you post pics when you get them in and then when installed please?

[Tennypicou1]

Sure

I ordered my set last night, and lo and behold, the confirmation email says "TTA-SBIK C10 TUBULAR TRAILING ARM SWAY BAR INSTALL KIT"

Got an update on your progress? My brackets appear to be coming on Tuesday.

[Tennypicou1]

No parts yet mine should also be here on Tuesday. Working nights though and will not be working on the truck until Wednesday most likely.

I sent a email to CPP's tech support, and here is the reply I got,

"No set instructions for this but place the brackets loosely on the tubes, with the suspension loaded you want to keep the end links at a 90 degree angle to the sway bar.

I don't have a cab or bed on my frame, so I am likely a few weeks out at best. Unless I just put everything up loosely. I already bolted the L brackets to the frame.

The kit came today, and the pipe clamps will not work. They put 2" exhaust clamps in the kit and I don't think they accounted for the metal welded to the sides of the trailing arms. Went to the Advance Auto store down the road and picked up some 2 1/4" pipe clamps and the width is correct, but the U-bolt needs to be semi-round or maybe even square. The shipping and handling charge was also a little excessive, $34.44 for FedEx Ground from Cali to Delaware. I deal with shipping all the time at work and that is extremely excessive for ground.

Did not get parts yet when I do I will let you know what I got. I hate when kits don't work.

[Tennypicou1]

I got the whole sway bar kit for the tubular trailing arms and its the same parts as yours. I hope to have it on tomorrow if the rain holds off.

[Tennypicou1]

Did you figure something out yet? I put my porterbuilt crossmember in and my cpp tubular trailing arms in and I see the delima. I tried 2 1/4" exhaust clamps if they were longer I could make them work. My only option as of now is to use a 2 1/2" square ubolt kit for a trailer leaf spring suspension. But I will have to modify that set up also.

I started making brackets just like the rounded brackets that are intended to be used on the bottom. Started with a 1 1/4" square box tube and traced out. Cut it out last night, just need to do the curved part. Will post pics tomorrow night.
