I have to pull my tank out to replace some lines and other stuff so now seems like the perfect time to put in a sway bar. I'd rather fab the plate than buy it (college student budget), and remember seeing a .dwg or picture with its dimensions. Does anyone have a copy of those or know the dimensions? The only one I'm really concerned about is the bolt spacing.
Thanks. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Bird Board has a template for drilling the holes that is printable off their site.

Cool. That's easy. Thanks.
Anyone know the bolt size? Edit:That should be on PET so its attainable, NM. |

Whatever bolt you want. But please, stick with metric/original and use 8mm x 1.25 bolts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

BTW the Factory didnt put anything inside to accomodate the anti-sway bar they spot welded a nut plate on the outside.

BTW the Factory didnt put anything inside to accomodate the anti-sway bar they spot welded a nut plat on the outside. The factory also ran a skinny ass sway bar that didn't put much stress on the surrounding sheet metal. If you think you might decided to upgrade your sway bar in the future, do yourself a favor and weld in a backing plate ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) Andy |
