Any one try the 73-76 Hotchkis front sway bar and use the factory lower control arm tabs instead of the ones that come with the kit? I was looking at one last night and it looks like it should fit the stock tabs. It would save grinding off the tabs and welding the new ones on.

Yes I run a hotchkis with factory 73_76 A-body arms. First one they made for that. Google image search: autoxcuda hotchkis swaybar and you should see a picture of it.

I have a Helwig on my 73 wagon. It was a bear to install.

This picture? Looks like the stock brackets will work.
I had 2 cars at my place yesterday one with factory tabs and one without. Of course it was the car with no factory brackets that was getting the sway bar.
