About 25 years ago I installed an ADCO bar on my early Barracuda. My car had one lower control arm tab, and a second was fabricated and welded on. I tossed the ADCO mounts, fabricated new mounts and installed new poly bushings and end links. At the same time, went to larger 340 T-Bars.

I have found that overtime the sway bar will move slightly in the lateral direction. This seems to happen if more turns one way are made than the other. The bar will sometimes bump the strut bar when a large bump is encountered. The note the sway link out of alignment in link picture.

Googled for sway bar stops, and found 1 1/8" stops for about $10. I aligned the bar first by tapping one end with a plastic shot filled hammer. By mounting the stops inside or outside of the sway bar bushing, locks the bar in place.

Please excuse the dirt on the chassis and other parts. I live on a gravel rod and it has been awhile since cleaning.
