Could be a "H & H" adjustible. Popular in the '70's.

Are the triangular plates in the wheel well different too. Mine are, and the bushings are hard plastic cylindrical shape, not tapered rubber like oem replacements.

Its better than stock you get some adj, Consider it and upgrade.
Check the size of the bar it mite be bigger than stock.

It's a H&H, I had one in my 73.

Posted by: Heeltoe914 Oct 12 2006, 03:02 PM

If you are going to keep it enjoy it, its a good bar. But looking at all that road dirt around it and on it think about removing the brackets and lubing up the solid buchings I think are in there.

Posted by: Ferg Oct 12 2006, 03:08 PM

Yep, that's what I have as well! Mine's out of the car, and bushings are pretty worn. Is there still are source for them? Or heavy lube and reuse?

Yep, I got to see this stuff first-hand on Monday at Ferg's.

He said Pelican(?) sent him the wrong front SB bushings. When he showed me the bushings they sent, I said 'those are correct'.

He said 'well they look nothing like these' and I said 'those are definitely not stock'.

Interesting.

honest mistake on both ends. mystery solved. i bet someone at paragon can help you now that you know what type of bar you have.

It's the one I have in Suzi. Now I know it's an H&H biggrin.gif
Thanks for the info.

Cool chart tommy914. Do you have one? If so what do you think? Bushings still available? What's the scoop???

Posted by: Series9 Oct 12 2006, 05:48 PM

That's not the one Ferg has. His bushing is cylindrical and doesn't have the 'U' shape bracket to secure it.


Hmmm.

Posted by: Series9 Oct 12 2006, 05:51 PM

This is what Ferg has. It's different from the drawing for the H&H.

Howard, that's the factory bushing and cap.

Posted by: sixnotfour Oct 12 2006, 07:12 PM

H&H had two designs the second deisgn like factory cap ,It is flat plate triangle wth pipe welded to it.(like Rohdyguys)
Horward has H&H arms maybe bar too, factory cap as Joe said.

I have a H&H on my 911 that I purchased almost 20 years ago. I also have the documentation. I wore the bushings out years ago, and just made some replacements out of delrin. A few minutes on the lathe was all it took

The alternate H&H mount was to convert cars from under-body to through-body swaybars. The tubs had the stamping where the bar passed through, even though the cars had underbody bars.

Yes, still have one attached. I like it, but I would never run it as stiff as the one shown in the first picture. I haven't needed replacement bushings yet. I also replaced the droplinks with weltmeister adjustable.
