1974 Plymouth Valiant Scamp - Restoration is a strong word
My first idea was to add an angle bracket to the bottom of the LCA and mount the sway bar above. After researching more here, looking at the Hellwig instructions for their bar, and watching several videos, this seemed like a better approach for my stock '73-'76 sway bar...
I drilled all the way through the LCA. Technically, I drilled from the front, then from the back. Then I cut a sleeve for the inside of the LCA out of some scrap steel tube I had laying around...
Then I bolted it all together...
I'll repeat on the other side tonight. My end links seem a little long, so I'm going to cut the sleeve down a little so the sway bar doesn't hang too low. Hopefully, I won't need new bolts, but that'll be pretty easy to solve if I need to.
