Rear Sway arm for 72 Cutlass
Looking for a rear sway bar for a 72 Cutlass convertible.
New or used, I'm thinking if I could find a good used one I would buy it.
Or maybe I'm better off with a new one, Not sure. Thanks Barb.

The new ones are cheaper than most used ones I see advertised. A factory rear is 7/8, call them they may have a 7/8. Generally I hear a rear should be smaller than the front.
If you want to feel some real difference put a 1.25" front and a 1" rear, I did and I like what it did for the car.
Have fun,
Mike

OK Thanks! New ones for sure. I'll measure the front one and buy one smaller for the rear. The reason I'm buying the rear is the car did sway the other day going around a corner, (Maybe just a little fast). Got to have some fun.
Thanks Barb.------Thanks Mike.
