I recently picked up an aftermarket rear sway bar for my 72 Scamp- was on a 67 Valiant before. I like the Hellwig that is on the front= but the rear bar requires moving gas and brake line.

I don't know the brand or get any instructions- like a giant erector set.. Hopefully someone will recognize the bar so I can get installation instructions and some rubber bushings. One of the end-links is also bent a little- but could be straightened I guess.
One clue is that is is silver anodized(?) not painted
I think it is an ADDCO 919
Anyone recognize? thanks

That looks like the Addco bar. I have one. You can buy poly end link bushes. Or, I have a box of used rubber ones -- you would need 8.

BTW I didn't have to reroute any lines. Just bent up the little tab that holds the brake line against the axle, enough so that the u-bolt can go under the brake line.

Oh, the end links are nothing special. You can just buy long bolts or use threaded rod. They don't really take any shear stress, only compression and tension, and that is mitigated by the rubber bushes.

Thanks- Where did you get your poly bushings? The guy I got it from assured me you didn't have to move brake or fuel line- thanks for the tips

Shock grommets are the same thing, and Autozone O'really both carry them.
Jegs carries them in poly.
 
I didnt have to reroute lines.... Lol
I welded them on the housing for my Swinger.
