rear sway bar

[gary]

A few questions on rear sway bar on the 71's.
Were they an option? Any one have feedback on aftermarket kits? What are the advantages of sway bars? Thanks

71 b-bodys did not come with rear sway bar

72- 74 did

Agreed, no 71 rear bar from the factory, but you can retrofit a later year one on a 71. Benefits...the car will handle better. I have one on my butterscotch car, and it's a big difference from blue car that doesn't have one.

I bought the Addco rear bar for my '72 SS and intend to put it on this Spring. However, over on Moaprts, people claim that it's a on-size-fits-all, and it'll need a lot of shimming to get it to fit right. I'll report back in a coupla months with what I learned.

I wasn't the original owner of my '71 RR, but I'm pretty sure my rear sway bar was from the factory.

my 72 does not have one on the rear and i would like to put one on the rear. i noticed there are 3 companies that sells them feel firm, addco, and hellwig. i personally like the looks of the ones that hang down by the axle, any recommendations. how about for the front. any good upgrades?

I would have figured you would have a front on there as factory, no?
