I have an aftermarket front bar...but this rear one is factory. My never had one, so if I can get this one to work on my factory control arms, it should make a big difference. Next year I plan on putting aftermarket upper and lower rear control arms on it.

There might be some "dimples" on the sides of the LCA to give you an idea where to locate the cross bolts for the bracket.

orange if yours doenst have the sway bar provisions in the lower control arms you will have to get ones from yard that do or aftermarket ones that do.....

And Junks yards out there will the 92 chevy caprice COP CAR (has to be from this 91 to 96 I think) and has to be the cop car version, anyways that rear sway bar is a direct bolt up...

And the front from a 70 to 81 Trans Am type of vehicle with the F-41 suspension I forget what they call theres maybe WS-6 package I think that will give you the thick as hell front sway bar

Thanks...thats helpful. Im thinking my control arms dont have the holes there for those "U" channels to line up with and that I might have to drill some and tap them. Unfortunately I dont have my car in my garage now to go look at.

Those pics are very helpful. Thats about how I thought they should look. Now I may have a clearance issue for the sway bar cause the big 3" tailpipes may be hanging down a bit low as they come down from over the axle...we shall see.

I dont know if it matters A_Tame76 but if the caprice type sway bar kinda sits back a little more than the stock one did and also comes together more if you know what I mean
