Hey Mopar family I have another question I want to get a sway bar from
Johnny I have a 1990 Dodge Daytona VNT can someone tell me the size sway bar I
need I really don't feel like getting under it and trying to measure and all the
ugly stuff that go's with that I'm sure someone has bought one in the past
that has a VNT Dodge thanks again.
I have one on order from Johnny for my 1990 Daytona Shelby VNT. Your
question is not bar size, but what A-arms you have. I have the earlier
stamped version (they look almost like 2 pieces. Johnny has pictures on
his web site). You might also have the later cast ones, apparently.
Knowing this difference is all you need to know to order the bar.
If you just want the bushings, then you need to know the diameter. The
stock bar has a smaller diameter on the ends than in the middle of the
bar, so the bushings won't be the same size. In fact, what you will
probably do is to order the smaller size, freeze the bushings (yes, in
your freezer), and drill out two of them to the right size to fit the
larger diameter. It costs WAY less this way. After having said all
that, I found that my bar was severely worn and corroded where the
bushings were such that the diameter of the bar in those places was
significantly less than it should be. So, I just ordered a whole new
bar. You will probably find that the same is true for you. I didn't
know this until I had the bushings off the old bar.
Finally, to answer your question on bar size, I think that the stock bar
is 1 1/4" and 1 1/8" (that's working from memory). Johnny's replacement
is 1 1/4" (if my memory of the stock sizes is correct).
later...
