| Mine broke where it bends 90 degrees. Driving home last night I hit a bump and heard metal on metal. Then every bump after that! Looked under there just now and saw it. The bushing is still there (I was only a mile from the house), but I need a new clamp. Need a 9C1 clamp as Chris upgraded it | |

| So did the tow pack cars get a bigger bar? I used the clamp from Dusty and it works fine. Of course now I need one for Dusty. I used the bushing that was on the bar, just the clamp got moved. | |

| I dont know if the tow pack wagons got larger sway bars,but I do know that the 9C1 cars used larger diameter bars thus they needed larger clamps and the sway bar bushings required larger holes. ed | |

| Those clamps (and bar) came off a 9C1. However, you can use a stock wagon bracket since your bushings are fine. If you had a brand new regular bushing (non SS/9C1)...it would be a really tight fit to get that bracket/clamp to bolt up.
So basically I think the brackets are all the same...it's the bushings that change (the inside hole diameter)
Does that make sense? | |

Does that make sense? Brokecello, I believe what you said makes more sense regarding the bracket,yes all the brackets are probably the same ,its the bushings that have to change with the diameter of the bar. ed | |

| Agree with Chris. I was afraid the 9c1 Bracket/clamp would be taller. It was hard to tell as the broken one was bent up and looked taller. After a run to two parts stores and no luck (they all had endlinks though!) I had to borrow it off the other car so I could go wagon shopping, lol | |

I just reached out to Erek Larson to see if he can mail you the ones off the bar I bought from him. Just pay him whatever it costs to mail... Chris | |

| Yeah. They don't sell the bushings or clamps, only end links and end link bushings.
Silly. I had the same issue when I went to replace mine. |

Chris THanks, I'll hit him up again. I spoke to him on FB the other night, He said he hadn't removed the bar yet, lol. | |

| I have a clamp and bushing that I pulled from a 94 road master wagon. If you want to give me a measurement or something I can see if it is the same size this weekend. No rust southern car. | |
