sway bar

[anchors]

P.O. installed after market sway bars in my 71 coupe, 1-1/4 front, 3/4 rear, I would like to return to the stock set up which is 3/4 front bar only. The problem is 15/16 is the smallest I can find through the big name suppliers. Any help with this would be appreciated.

I thought the stock size was 15/16".

15/16 is stock on heavy duty applications as in LT1 or big block.

Have you tried calling vette brakes and products? They don't list it on their website, but they may be able to make one.

I have not, I'll give it a try though, thanks

You're right.

In digging through my notes, I've found that not only is the stock 3/4" bar no longer available, but the 7/8" bars are long gone also. Lack of demand apparently.

Thanks for your responses,as I don't intend to compete with car so I see no reason to try to out think the corvette engineers on this one. Spring is a ways off so I'll keep trying to locate a used one.

The setup you now have will give you near neutral handling while going back to stock will bring back the factory designed in understeer which will help prevent the rear end from trying to lead if you take a curve too hot.

The current setup has a lot of oversteer which I don't care for, a little understeer is a lot more comfortable for me
