I`m back! waited along time for more upgrading parts for my road handling,ordered summit sway bars 720230 for b bodys 64-69 fitted realy good had to drill 4 holes in the k member for bracket. summit bars looks the same as hellwig sway bars 5903 but are cheaper

 

[Dart Mike]

for the rear summit bar was ordered 720231 have not mounted it yet but think this might fit allso. looks the same as hellwig 6909

 

[Dart Mike]

got the engine rpm from the sniper screen to read but the bosch retro tach fst 8050 is much nicer

easiest way to remove old bushings is to set them on fire
