A day on the road...

Picking them up and putting them down....as they say.

Always great to look at this thread after being away for the day.

Madness..... :lol:
 
So as you know Classic Industries sent a anti sway bar kit that does not fit early A bodies. Got them to return it, and I mailed it back to them. On the way home from Boise, I get a phone call from them. Hello, yes we received your sway bar kit, BUT on inspection it looks like it has been installed. Don't forget I sent them pictures of it installed showing the fitment issue. And we have a policy of not accepting returns that have been installed. WTF?? I said, but it does not fit. They said, I should always verify fitment and applications before installing the part. Are they kidding me?? I asked for someone with a brain. I told them the part shows that it fits my application, but it does not, and there was no way to know this without trying to install it. Sorry sir...I said, screw you, I will let pay pay issue me my refund....you guys are nuts......

66s sway bars weren't OE were they? Not like you could take the old one and lay it on top of the new one. Tape measures only go so far through all those angles and around those corners.

That's like buying a box of nuts , but they send you a box of screws, and their policy is no returns on opened boxes.
How do you know what they sent, till you open the box.
Sorry your having a problem, but thanks for the warning.
They won't get my business.

Make a keyed sleeve which must be long enough to compensate for the misfit. Cut the inappropriately sized sway bar in half and mill a keyway for a woodruff key in each newly cut end. 2 set screws on each side of the sleeve. Adjust to fit.

I’m actually a bit surprised it didn’t ignite the gas in the line and travel back to the tank where a fresh 15 gallons of 93 octane was

You're safer with 93 octane than 87.... 87 octane burns better and ignites faster than 93....

Thank goodness for that then

We used to be allowed to burn our leaves here in the old days... Once in a while we would take the easy way out and throw some gas on the leaves to get them going....

When we threw 93 octane on them, it did not light right away, a slight pause and then poof!!!

When we threw 87 octane on the leaves, no pause ---> POOF!!!!

The lower octane is more flammable and burns easier...

Octane is the resistance of gas not to burn... The higher the octane, the harder it is to burn.... The lower octane, the easier it burns...

That's why high compression engines need high octane so they don't pre-ignite early from the higher cylinder pressure...

I don't recall ever seeing a hollow sway bar. It's basically a torsion bar made to twist to some extent and transfer some force from one side to the other. My experiences with twisting pipes in a torsional fashion never ended well in the long run. :realcrazy:

They make hollow sway bars for A bodies. You can buy them right off the shelf. They’re chrome moly and thick but weigh less than traditional solid sway.

that said, I don’t think it’d try to run a hollow bar on the street
