    Ok here I go....I was wondering would the 2nd gen chevy dual master fit my 66 without any stabilizer mount adjustment??...or will I still have to mess around with the mount ??......my truck came with a bunch of brake work already done so I will run the drum/drum for awhile BUT I want to replace the single master...and run dual feed..thanx

    Thats pretty cool Donivan.Clean,neat lookin.I could'nt help but notice on your spacers,on each end,you inside radiused about 1 1/4 - 1 3/8 inch.Was that to better get a box-end on ,or simply cosmetic? Either reason,it looks better with it.

    Don,
    Do you have any Sway bar pic's showing where they attach to the axle? I'm sure asking you of all people if you have pic's seems pointless since you've had one for every single question ever asked here. And that is amazing!

    Reason is I got a swaybar with front brackets only and need to figure out what else I need.

    Thx,
    Dan

    The 1st thing is that if the van did not come with a sway bar, the frame won't be threaded for the upper mounts. So what I do is make a u bolt out of threaded rod and hook it in and out of the 2 holes in the frame and it hangs down like it knows what it doing,,,,then bolt on that block,,,,then bolt on the mount. And the block is there IF you put the longer 2 line master cylinder on a 1st Gen AND you have a sway bar,,,,,
