Front swaybar Bushings

[kev]

What size is the front sway bar bushings on a stock 66 300hp? Is it 5/8 1/2 ???


Thank you

The bar is 3/4" diameter, but the hole in the split bushing is much smaller than that in the free state; the bracket really compresses it when the bolts are torqued (usually have to use a jack on the bracket to compress it enough to get the bolts/nuts started).

Thanks John

The reason I asked is because Im doing a body off. I want to replace my bushings but Im not sure what to buy. Do the bushings come in different sizes ?

Thanks again

They come in 5/8" and 7/8" I.D. - you want the 5/8"; the 7/8" is just for the large F-41 bar.
