64 Polara front sway bar

[moparmatt383]

Good morning everyone,

My Polara project is moving along. Front fenders are off and 318 engine is out so I figured this is a good time to replace some of the old front end bushings, etc…

I have a full sway bar set up out of my my 73 Cuda. Control arms, brackets, links, and bar. Will that stuff transfer over to the 64 Dodge. I believe the control arms are the same, but are the factory sway bar mounting tabs in the right location? I’ll do some test fitting, but figure I’d ask here first because I have to collect my parts from a few different locations.

Thank you!

Matt

Not a direct bolt on, but can likely be adapted. Original style clamped to front strut rods, and was suspended from K- frame with links.

I bought a Firm Feel for my 65 coronet. Pretty straight forward install. Made a terrific improvement in the way the car handles.

73 E body lower control arms will fit your B body. The sway bar goes through the K frame and would require modification to fit. 73 up B body control arms won't fit your car, as noted above, but E body control arms will.

Correct.

Thank you for all the info. I’ll probably leave well enough alone as far as the sway bar goes and maybe look at one of the aftermarket kits down the road.

Hellwig and Addco have bars available.

Here ya go. That's exactly what I did for my '65 Belvedere, as this was leftover from a Hotchkis upgrade to my '73 Chall. You can buy the swaybar tabs to weld on your LCAs for cheap.

Pretty sure I used E body LCAs, as they must've had the slots for locating the new swaybar end link brackets. I doubt your originals would have them.
