Re: My 89 CC Dually: Double Wide

Well.... I was able to mock the sway bar up in place. The only way it would go directly on the frame rail would be by drilling all new holes for the frame bushings. But, if I did that, the bar still made contact w/the C30 xmember gussets that tie the rails to the center of the xmember. If I utilized the pedestals, there was just enough clearance so that's how I put it together. The bushings are sandwiched between the frame rail & inner/top side of the pedestals.

I then has to elongate the pedestal-to-frame mounting holes 3/8" & the bushing-to-pedestal holes the same. This put the ends of the bar about parallel to the ground & allowed me to get the end links @ approx the same angles (not quite vertical).

I'm waiting on the brackets to dry now & then can reassemble everything again.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
