1971 Satellite-Adding A Sway Bar #2844988 11/11/20 05:40 PM 11/11/20 05:40 PM

Car has been cloned into a roadrunner and is just a driver but has upgraded shocks, torsion bars, tubular control arms, but no sway bar. Car is never raced, just looking to improve cruising on the street. Hoping to get one that doesn’t require drilling and just uses the front shock mount. Thanks ahead of time!

Some lower priced aftermarket units do not duplicate exact stock layout and attach to the lower shock bolt with an angle bracket and have various stacks of plates to attach to the K frame. Depends on how original you want it to be.

I've used a few Hellwig bars over the years. They usually fit okay and the price is right. https://www.hellwigproducts.com/pro...71&Make=Plymouth&Model=Satellite
