Well ive seen a lot of posts on people who added sway bars to their early a bodies without the lower control arm tabs

What options do I have, and are there any kits out there that will bolt in...im guessing I need to drill through the k member?

My front end is completely rebuilt on my 65 valiant, yet want some better handling
thanks in advance

Control arm tabs are the best way to go, but there are other ways to mount them. An Addco #751 bar kit will suit. Don't know if they still do, but JC Whitney used to sell them at reasonable prices.

The cheapest place I found was on the internet a couple of years ago

www.shox.com You may have to ask for a quote.



I'd search on the internet for prices.

And get the poly bushings......

And2 JC Whitney may or may not have them. JC Whitney seems to change vendors every couple of years............

is the addco a bolt on even though i dont have mount tabs?
would a shop have to weld the tabs on that come with the kiT?
oh yea...i have a 318 in the car if that makes a difference!
Thanks

yes
no
don't think so

hmm...so it bolts into the k member then?
any more pics of your setup...the firmfeel setup is twice the price of the addco

You have to drill a hole into the K-member, but that's it.

That's all the pics I have.

How has your sway held up?
is it a daily driver?

thanks

Pretty good so far. I want to eventually have the top bolt of the mount go thru the K-member too, then I think I would eliminate any possible mount problems.

Work from home, so not much driving; but I probably use it 40% of time...... (tends to be short trips, except for occasional long trip to parents)

kinda new to all this, but why would the rare tabs be better than the mounts that the addco kit comes with?...something wrong with the attach point at the shock tower?

How much did this kit help with the sway?
My 65 has tons of sway and everything rolls across the seats!

What sway?

Don't have anymore sway.
