OLD stuff, but my Addco bar mounted with angle brackets which bolted to the control arms, and regular stock type brackets to the frame. But that was back in the mid '70s. '71 Sebring.

It mounts below the k member instead of the bar running through it. The bar is too big. Now the bar hangs low under the chassis. Had the same issue with the PST bar I had on my 67 Fury

If so, is it installed upside down? We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind. - Stu Harmon
