    will the 67-70 mustang rear sway bar be the same for our cars since the springs perches are the same width apart? :huh:

    Somebody's used the front bar off some Mustang, I think they had to drill new holes in the lower control arm for the end links or modify the ends of the bar.

    I put a 1 1/8 mustang bar in mine, needed to move front mounts foreward about 1in.
    Welded in a longer plate and redrilled the holes.

    I put an Addco rear sway bar on mine from Auto Krafters last year. I believe they are 3/4" but they cost about $200 from what I can remember.

    A friend of mine bought a Comet that had a 65 Mustang rear sway bar on it. Fit pretty good.
