Decided to tackle my sway bars this weekned. The front is a Tarret and the rear is a stocker. I did the front setup today. Started by drilling the tub. 1 1/8" holes for the Tarret bar and the three mounting holes. Then made some backing/nut plates out of some flat stock (1/4" plate) I had laying around.
Here's the backing/nut plate next the Tarret bushing block: Attached image(s) |

OK..........got around to doing the rear bar mounts today. Started by making the brackets that get welded underneath and some re-enforcing plates for the top side (inside trunk).
Here's the nut plates/brackets I made: Attached image(s) |
