Rear Sway Bar Question
Mocking up a Nova rear sway bar from various parts.
-one NOS sway bar spring perch -one modded (was NOS) sway bar spring perch. (ran on the mini tubbed Nova for a few years... will rework back to stock configuration) -several bars all the same -two different styles of uprights QUESTION IS; Which uprights would be correct for 71-72 Nova ?? Lower clam shell straight down or 90 degrees The 90 degree uprights have a little dog leg offset to them. All dimensions check out -center pins 43" (matches the diff) uprights approx. 25-1/2 centers (matches the body) Thanks for any input guys ! Gary

Thanks but 75 up is different...wider.
I just need to know what uprights are correct. My dimensions have been verified against the diff and body. Gary

Gary: The 90 degree end uprights are correct for 72-75 Nova. Part numbers are 3998667 and 3998668 , Group 7.242 Same as on my 72 Nova.
