Sway bar kit - E body - 08/11/19 10:29 PM
I’m thinking about adding a front sway bar to my BB 72 Challenger. Seems like you can buy this stuff from a number of different places. Any recommendations on the best kit to buy in terms of quality, fit and install? Not a corner carver by any stretch, and just looking for something stock looking. Thanks, Tony

I just put the Hellwig 1.250 hollow front bar on my 70 cuda, what an amazing difference!

I have a new Hotchkis front sway bar kit that I'll make you a deal on. I was going to use it on my Coronet but decided to go a different way.

Thanks Andy . From what I read the hitchkis kit requires welding of the control arm tabs. I’m a driller, not a welder

So that means that you do not have the factory tabs on your lower control arms?

I have the Firm Feel tabs bolted on and a 7/8" factory bar at the moment. The tabs work. I'm not familiar with the Hotchkiss setup, but I would think the bar would line up with the FF tabs.

I have the bolt on tabs on my '68 that use the lower front shock bolt. Easy to install and remove if necessary.
