FS: Hotchkis Rear Sport Sway Bar (#2202R)

Hotchkis 2202R Rear Sport Sway Bar bought new from Summit Racing as part of TVS kit, but will likely be using another style (like original) 1" instead. Just the bar is included, no bolts. Pic below. Mounted a short while (not tightened), then removed.

$100. Pickup only.

That is a great bar.I have one on the 72,and just recieved one for a customer's car that I am doing saturday.Yours looks farther away from the rear cover,compared to the ones that I have done,but you also do not have your suspension under load,which will change the control arm positions,and move the bar upward when loaded.

Here prob a dumb question... but are the front and rear bars 'matched' for each other 'size' wise and/or 'shape' wise?

For example... would any 1" rear bar (regardless of shape) work just the same with the front Hotchkis 1 3/8" bar?

My only beef really with this bar is the 'shape'. I was hoping to find a original v-shaped style original in 1". However, the only one found so far is made in China.

Generally,the front swaybar is thicker than the rear.If you go with a thicker one in the rear,then you normally upgrade to an thicker one on the front.My 72 only has a rear bar,as I removed the front one,but I don't carve the cones with that car.It wasn't too long ago that I was able to get a new GM rear bar from the dealership,but not sure about now.You could also check with Fusick.There were 2 different styles that I have seen come from the factory.One had a definite point,or "V" in the center,and the other style had a more gradual bend.

I'm interested, but you said pick up only. What's the reason for no ship?
