Front sway bar parts -, Mounting plates question Options

[seanpaulmc]

1/17/2021 - resurrecting to ask new question.

Had the fuel tank out to replace the fuel line in the tunnel. From that I could see the front sway bar. Interestingly, the passenger side was connected and the driver side is not connected. In a box of parts that was with the car I found the drop link for the driver's side. It, however, is missing the cap and bolts to attach it to the bar. Does anyone know where I can get the piece to fit this part? Size of the bolts? Thank you.

Old thread.
I know I should be long past this work by now, but, I'm not.
I am working on some the metal repair and removed the front sway bar today while letting the Rust Bullet dry. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) It took the BFH to get it out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) And, I'm still trying to get the bushing out of the drivers side.

From the previous feedback it was said the U-bolts in the H&H design can be problematic. I can see that with the thin sheet metal.






914LTD and PMB both sell front sway bar mounts.
Both configurations are substantial compared to the square u-bolts on this H&H it was said to be.





The H&H uses all standard hardware. The bolt spacing for the top u-bolt is 2-1/4 inch.




Can anyone provide the bolt spacing for the 914LTD version and the PMB version of the mounts?
I would like to see how they compare before choosing even with the welding involved.

Thanks,
Sean

Maybe someone can give you the exact measurements, but I think the bolt spacing is the same for both products. At least that's what Photoshop tells me when I resize them to match the hole for the bar and overlay one image over the other. Either way you will want to weld them in.
