Alright, going to bed, long day of washing my car and installing the rear sway bar tomorrow, Ill have pics don't you guys worry, and maybe a step by step guide to help out others without PI control arms.

No Im only getting rid of the extra gauges, not the speedo, that is going in next weekend, sorry for any confusion.

no worries. am i to assume an old cluster is coming out of the car that that one is going in? sorry, i'm just really desperate for a fuel gauge haha

[91grandmarquis]

Yeah, however on the GMs the fuel gauge is silver with black around the edges, so if I ever want to go back to original I need to keep it because this one won't match. If I come across another one I will snag it for you though, There aren't any at the JY now but Ill definitely keep an eye out. There is no way you can fix yours to not stick? I don't know how that stuff works so just wondering. Sorry.

i like how the wires for the gauges is pretty much neat and dont have the back half exposed.

Ok I got the sway bar on, and it makes a huge difference in handling. As promised here are some pics.

That looks very different from what I was expecting to see.

What the hell? What's up with those metal plates? Almost looks as if a front swaybar is installed on the rear.

[marquisman]

yea, whats up with that? if it is a front swaybar, that would be cool

[91grandmarquis]

Nope, its a rear bar, the directions stated it, I was waiting for all the puzzled looks on your faces though. It basically mounts a plate to the control arm, then off the plate is the sway bar mounted with U-bolts. This puts the holes through the top of the control arm were the metal is thicker. Im not saying its any better than a PI, but it works really well, and fits nice with no clearance issues. I was going to do an install thread, but I noticed it was very different from a PI bar, so I didn't bother.

So it was an aftermarket swaybar then?

[91grandmarquis]

Im guessing it was and aftermarket replacement and not an original PI. It came with the car so I slapped it on. Since the holes go through the top of the control arm I can always switch to a PI bar if I wanted.
