Hi. I'm missing the brackets that bolt to the K member and plan to make a set since they are simple. I just need the measurement to locate the holes that mount the U to the bracket.

One measurement from either of the bolts through the K member to one of the bolts that mounts the U (center to center) will do.

On the front the pics I've found look like it might be about two inches.
 
I used this set to remount an Addco front anti sway bar. The steel bracket attaches by three bolts, or welding as a factory bar would. One of the mounting holes is pre factory drilled in K Member flange.

Thanks. These are so simple I just want to make them.


Oldmanmopar The holes should already be in your k member

The holes are there. It's the holes in the bracket that I don't have :)
 
Found a pic. I can just eyeball it from that.
Looks like they are drilled so the bracket can be installed either way.
I picked up 6' of C channel that fits them perfect for $8.00.

You found a picture of my parts that i sold on eBay quite a few years ago.
Everything's on the internet. lol
Just stick some bolts in the holes that are already in your crossmember, and take a measurement between the center to center, distance between them.
Should be simple enough.
 
Ha. Wondered if you'd catch it!
Actually it is biased way up front on the bracket not centered. One of the holes next to the front K mount hole is used but you're right, easy enough.
Thanks for the unauthorized use of your parts pic :)
 
Here's the fabbed brackets.
I eyeballed first, got it wrong, not enough space for the U brackets - hit K member. :eek:ops:
Welded the holes and re-drilled.
I'll post up the spacing later.
