New 67-69 Camaro/68-74 Nova Front Sway Bar

[darren@ridetech]

After several months of beating the crap out of project Velocity, we have finally finished development of the new sway bar that was designed for it. The design is similar to the 58-64 Impala bar that was debuted earlier this year, with the bolt on arms. After spending a significant amount of time testing different bar diameters we settled on a 1.5" diameter bar along with our PosiLink endlinks to best control the roll.
Ready to ship!

Will these work on the majority of aftermarket / oem lower control arms?

[darren@ridetech]

We have only fit them up with our StrongArms. However, our StrongArms were designed to work with a factory style sway bar. So, theoretically it should be close to fitting, but you will need to have to watch the PosiLink alignment. Check it through full suspension travel to make sure that it does not bind.

You will have to pardon me for asking but what is the advantage other than looking much cooler that a factory style sway bar? More tire clearance? This is why most of the aftermarket frames use the splined bars is to give more clearance.

Thanks and don't get me wrong, you guys make great shtuff!

Is that a 1-1/2" solid bar? If so that's pretty aggressive given that similar materials and levers makes for a bar over 7X stiffer than a 1-1/8" hollow Hotchkis part. Even with a 1/8 wall tube it's over 3X.

[darren@ridetech]

It's a 1.5" hollow bar. .134" wall.
Yes, it does allow for more tire clearance. We are running an 18 x 8" rim and the tire just touches the frame rail at full lock and still clears the bar. Also the Posi-Links eliminate the need for a poly bushing. By keeping the sway bar positively engaged at all times, your car is always "on the bar" versus compressing the bushing as you begin to turn the wheel. Gives it a more positive feel.

Darren, any pricing/availability on the new bar? The "old" one is the only one listed on the website.

[darren@ridetech]

$500 part # SWA6400-P. The old bar was part # SWA6400. In stock, ready to ship.

Can this be mounted to a Stock sub on a 69 F-Body?
Any issues if you have Rack and Pinion Steering?
Thanks

[darren@ridetech]

Yes, this sway bar is designed to work with a stock subframe. We have not fit it up to any rack and pinion kits, but I don't forsee any problems, being a rear steer car.

Did anyone try this swaybar with Speedtech control arm?

X2, That is what I have.

What's the difference between the two sway bars you offer for the 67-69 camaro?

[medbali76]

X2, That is what I have.

Does it fit perfectly? I have to buy another swaybar because my wheel scratching my speedtech swaybar pretty badly.

I would like to know if this anti sway bar fits with Speed tech lower control arms.

Ups, sorry we are in the same shoes.
The question is for those who use that setup. :)

[mean buzzen half dozen]

I would get this if I knew it does fit with Speed Tech lower control arms.

Has anyone tried this anti sway bar w/Speed Tech lower control arms?
