If you have an early A body with a rear sway bar, could you post a picture of it from under and behind please? Thank you .
 
Over 200 views and nobody has anything?
 
After the rain stops I can post a photo of the rear bar on the new 01 Cummins

LOL, Sorry Rob..........
 
I can snap a pic or two of a Hotchkis rear bar in my 66 in the next couple of days for you.
 
I have Addco bars on my 64.

Never took pictures of the rear.

And I'm currently out of town.

Sorry.
 
Just curious,what are you trying to learn from a picture of a rear sway bar? Ground clearance? Mounting points?

That way the pictures taken good be what you need?
 
Here are two poor photos of my rear sway bar on my '65 Dart. It was dark under the car, couldn't get my flash to work, and this is the best I could do at the moment.
You'll notice, I have a geometry problem with my bar created at least in part to my use of Super Stock rear springs, which raise the rear of the car considerably and the link is not long enough, so the bar leading to the links are not parallel to the car/ground. I plan on lowering the rear spring perch one inch, which should lower the rear of the car, and help with the geometry, but I'm sure I'll have to use a longer rod to get the geometry right.

Thanks yall, these were perfect! I was trying to see if the rear sway bars would interfere in any way with my old school traction bars. Yeah, I know, they "ain't right" for a Mopar, but they are part of the theme of my build so they are goin on. Now I know they will work with a rear sway bar. Thank you.
 
What theme involves traction bars AND a rear sway bar?!

My interest has peaked!!!

I want the little car to handle "better" than stock trim, so the sway bars are a must, but I also want the hot rod "second day" 60s-70s look. It's still a little high in the rear, so I am going with 1" lowering blocks because I don't want the sway bars to be nullified by the higher center of gravity and also raising the rear reduces the caster as well, which will make handling a little more squirrely.

It seems being myself included I know more people with traction bars on their Mopar than not... This Mopars don't use traction bars mith has got to stop being perpetuated...
