Re: 'Wintergreen' 1969 GMC Build

So I finally got the Addco front sway bar all mocked up and holes drilled ready to install. I have to say its kind of a hokey piece. The bar itself is nice, as its wider set than the original, but the links (to the lower control arm) seem a bit undersized. They are pretty much the same links that are on my girlfriends ford focus. Not only that, but since it doesn't use any of the factory mounting holes, you have to be very careful to make sure the links are setup up nice and straight when you drill for your frame brackets, otherwise you'll put unnecessary shear on the link bolts and those little guys can't take a whole lot.

Maybe its just me, I did a search and couldn't find any other complaints about it.
