Thanks guys.. Ill go tomorow to see if I can grab em.. If not then guess Ill have to do what Longroof79 said to do with a peice of tubing..Good think you guys know your stuff otherwise ill be really downgrading instead of upgrading lol..Again guys thanks for everything!
autozone carries poly bushing and spacer sets for the front sway bar. just make sure that when the car is at ride height, the sway bar is "flat" and level. so you'll want to measure the height from the sway bar to the control arm. it will vary with the ride height--so if you lowered it it's less than stock.
oh BTW the front bar is the later F-41 package it's a 1 1/4 bar. my monte came with it, not sure what other models. i think all the rear bars are the same though--7/8in

Front sway bushings
OK guys rear sway bar installed, made my own spacers with a piece of steel tube. Theres a big difference in the handling. Now I want to put new bushings on the front sway bar and end links. Do you guys have any extra that your willing to sell?
Thanks

So I can just go to my local Autozone and get me a pair? Hardware and all? Sorry if my questions sound dumb but im a newbie trying to do all work myself.
Yep.
Tell them you want a set of sway bar links, and they'll give you a few options quality wise, and you can either get cheapies for around $5 or poly ones for around $10.
Then for the sway bar frame bushings, you'll want to know what size bar you have.
I assume it's the smaller one, since you obviously don't have an F-41 equipped car... I can't recall what it is off-hand.

Well I have 2 sway bars, the original one of the 83 regal (installed), and one that I pulled of a 79 MC haven't compared but I suppose I can clean up and spray the one of the MC and take it in to match up the frame bushings..probably the same one I have installed either way cant be thinner i suppose at least it would be new.
