Anybody ever seen something like this before? Is this just the work of a DPO or ? It was in a box of stuff that came with my car that I just got around to sorting through.
It doesn't look like it would be anywhere near strong enough to support a rear sway bar... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/dio159.diomedestorage.com-654-1273302787.1.JPG) -Steve |

Aftermarket rear sway bar pieces... someone here can identify (not this someone). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

QUOTE(914Sixer @ May 8 2010, 04:28 AM)  Maybe Early H&H ? Mark is correct. That is from an early H&H rear sway bar kit. The u-bracket mounts to the lower shock-to-swing arm bolt. The drop link from the sway bar then bolts to the smaller bolt which pivots in the u-bracket. |

Yes, H&H. Most rear bars are pretty light -- 15-16mm.
Keep in mind that most front antiroll bars use 8mm hardware on the droplinks (which I consider inadequate...). |

Here is a picture of the H+H bar mount installed on my car. I bought it in the mid 70's from H+H. As I remember, he lived in Chelmsford Massachusetts and I drove to his house to pick it up as I lived 2 towns away.
Yeah, that is the original shock still in the car.  |
