So I scored a 19mm front bar, wondering now about rear bars. This is for a fast road, touring event, ‘74 with a 3.2 build.
I like cars that are tidy in their handling but would prefer not to leave the road backwards... Also looking to confirm that I can always address the real sway bar later because it’s bolt on that does not require any welding work? Take me to school here please! |

Front and rear sway bars were factory installed in the front and rear on 73 2.0. 74 and on were an option. You may or may not have the brackets installed on your car depending if your car originally came equipped with them.
If the car didn't, you will need to weld in brackets in the front and back. A few options are available for the front if you do a search. Once these are installed, then the sway bars are bolt on/off. I have a 19mm SB in the front, stock in the back. Stock front suspension, 140lbs springs in the back. My car is has a 2056-4 and is lowed a little. Direzza tires 195/55-15 on 2.0 Fuchs 5.5". I like it but I'm no expert, others will chime in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
