A fellow TC'r gave me a BIG sway bar he pulled from the local PickaPart. It was from a mid-late '80's Grand Am. Dang-it, it looks sooo close:

See where the big bar "kinks" inward just after the mounting point and the 90? That's just enough to hit the frame graemlins/sad.gif (at least on a '64). Every other dimension was perfect, other than being about 1" narrower at the link points.

John, look for one off a 2nd gen F-body (70-81 camaro/firebird) I've got one on my car, and it works great graemlins/thumbsup.gif
