1967-69 Camaro-Firebird Sway Bars

Sway Bars: (Front and Rear)

Sway bars should always be considered a suspension tuning devise, not the suspension. It is easy to over sway bar a Camaro or Firebird. Especially now when the concept today is bigger is always better. This statement is not true. To big of a front bar makes the car ridged and dance over bumps creating a understeering condition. Too much rear sway bar creates oversteer and reduces the amount of power being put down on the pavement during corner exit. In fact we rarely recommend a rear sway bar on these particular cars. The following chart provides available sway bar sizes, however, talking to one of our technician before ordering might be advisable. For example several variables exist regarding the rear suspension: tire size, horsepower, and rear spring rates are just some of the variables that influence whether or not to use a rear sway bar.

Front bar	Rear bar
SB-136 (1-inch) or SB-138 (1-1/8 inch)	Rear sway bars are not required with performance rear leaf springs. Stock mono leaf cars will benefit by using a rear sway bar. Standard multi leaf cars may or may not require a rear bar depending on number of leafs and rear tire size.

Part# SB-136 ------ $189.49

Part # SB-138 ----- $199.95

Sway bars are supplied with polyurethane end links and sway bar to frame bushings.
