when did the sway bar tabs move? I have seen them mounted in the middle of the lca, and way out by the knuckle and strut rod assemblies...



on a more urgent topic:
are the lower control arms the same on the A vs. B-bodies?

ive got a chance to pull a set with swaybar tabs off of a 68 Coronet Super Bee. but the car is slated to be scrapped soon.
should i spring for it?

(They would be installed in a 73 scamp, BTW)


thanks!

1967-1972 uses a sway bar that mounted under the K member, and 1973-1976 used a bar that went through the K-member

Sway bar tabs mounted in the middle were used from 65 or so through 72. 73-76 were out by the knuckle.. I looked in my parts book and it shows different part numbers for the A and B body LCAs. I'd still grab them anyway as B Body people are always looking for that kind of stuff (along with sway bars)
