I have been trying to find some lower control arms for my challenger with sway bar tabs with no such luck...

Does anyone make an after market one that I can weld on?

I think I will get the weld in braces as well...

Suggest you check with Firm Feel - call if necessary. I believe they carry them or will modify the arms for you.

I have asked if anyone makes weld on brackes a few times with no response... I think there is a market here... - the are not "that" hard to make and I think people would buy them...

I actually cut a set off of a rusted pitted set and welded them on my nice clean set just because the rest of the arms were junk...

I was looking for a set to weld with no luck...

This was for an a-body...

Firm Feel has them.

cool, I will call them monday!

Thanks Andy!

I once called Firm Feel about this very same subject. Sway bar tabs for the Mopar lower control arms.
They have sway bar tabs, but they are only for their own designed and manufactured sway bars.
I don't know how those tabs will bolt on, weld on, or work with a factory sway bar.
Then Mopar used two types of sway bar mount tabs.
One style for the 70-74 e body cars, 70-72 b body cars, and 73-76 a body cars.
The other style sway bar mount tab was welded on very close to the ball joint stud hole on the 72 and earlier a body cars, and the 69 and earlier b body cars.
I don't know what year, make, model car that your working on, but i don't think the Firm Feel tabs will work at all on the earlier sway bar cars.
The Firm Feel bars are located in a different position on the lower control arms.
Just thought that i would give you a heads up this morning, about this issue.
Good luck, anyway.

I just re-read you posting, and your working with a Challenger, so those Firm Feel tabs may, or may not work for a factory sway bar.

There's a pair for sale right now on e Bay. Here's the link to the auction.

I bought a pair of brackets off someone and bolted them to my LCA with grade 8 bolts. See attached pic.

Otherwise, I was going to fabricate some based on drawings and pics someone here on Moparts posted years ago. I will repost them in the following posts.

CAP makes tubular LCAs with sway bar tabs. They're nice pieces too; I just put a pair in my Charger.

Dang! somebody bought those LCAs off ebay... The worse part is they are right down the road from me!

The LCA's from a 71-74 B body can also be used. Used to have a 71 GTX and used one from a 74 Challenger I got at the boneyard. Forget what the name of the interchange book is that let's you see what parts like these interchange but I wouldn't mind having one. Should be able to find some on the board here for sale. Good luck.

I'm sure that's what happened...

Very upsetting...



Thats the way it is on an open forum though...

Anyhow, can't find my old LCAs, I think they might have gotten scrapped so I would really like to be able to find some with tabs on them.

I have some '69 control arms on it now, but I don't want to butcher them cause I want to make the parts car I have in the back a roller again.

the CAD pieces look nice, but I really don't need to drop 8lbs off the front of this car. Would be nice, but not $400 nice!

Course, if it cost me $200 to get a set of new LCAs, box them(probably $30 for plates w/ shipping) and new LCA bushings, I may be close to the cost of the CAD pieces if they are ready to bolt in...

Keep looking on e Bay,they show up there on a fairly regular basis.
I rebuild these things, and then put them up for sale on e Bay, but i don't have any in stock at this time.
I recently removed a sway bar mounting tab from a bent lower control arm, but i only have that one from the right side. Don't have a pair that i can help you out with.

Let me know if you don't have any luck digging some up. I might have apair for sale. I just looked in my garage and I have one there that has the bracket for the sway bar. I am sure the other one is in the trunk of a car I bought for parts. I have to look and see if the car I am going to fix has a sway bar on it already ? I'm not sure if it does. It's funny , while we were stripping the fenders off of the one car today, my brother asked me if the other Satellite had the sway bar on it like the one we were stripping. The cars are at my buddies place so I have to make a trip out and look , the 2 cars are at different locations. I believe they are off of a 71-72 B body . Let me know if you are interested , I will get some pics of them. I am located in Smithville ,Ontario , Canada so shipping might be costly. Dave.
