T wBuilding my 87 El Co.
I went with an 8.8 from an 89 Mustang GT. I went with the Trick Chassis double adjustable setup.
As usual, the issues of the rear sway bar came up for me.
Tried the stock unit. nope.
Tried a 2003 Blazer two door unit. Nah... ain’t happening.
Then I looked at the old axle assembly from my 2004 Crown Victoria. What the hell... I went into the attic and pulled out the old rear sway bar from my 2003 Marauder. Interesting..... it’s not too wide.
I took the u bolts and bushings from the Blazer... and then the end links.... yep, it fits. Just need to weld up brackets.
It’s close to the stock lower control arms I have on there for the trial fitting, but it fits.
Well, there you go. It’s what I’m going with. If I need a heavier bar, I’ll order the Addco unit for the Marauder and go big.

Thought I’d share.
