QA1 Front Sway Bar for 1963-1987 Chevrolet C10 - 1-3/8 Inch
This QA1 front sway bar delivers handling and stability that exceeds other available options, making it the best choice for customers who want reliable performance in their classic Chevrolet truck. Crafted from lightweight hollow-core 4130 chromoly steel, it reduces body roll during cornering by distributing vehicle weight more evenly across all four tires, resulting in better grip and control on the road or track. The precision CNC-bent design ensures a perfect fit with bolt-on installation, using factory mounting locations for straightforward setup without modifications. Finished with a durable black powder coat, it offers long-lasting protection against corrosion while providing a clean appearance under the chassis. Backed by a 1-year warranty and made in the USA, this sway bar stands out for drivers seeking enhanced ride quality and confidence in every turn.
Key Features:
- Hollow tubular construction (1-3/8 inch diameter, 3/16 inch wall thickness) for reduced weight and increased stiffness compared to solid bars.
- CNC-formed tubing with machined and welded ends for exact fitment and strength.
- Greaseable graphite polyurethane bushings to minimize friction and allow smooth operation.
- High-quality plated hardware for secure mounting and resistance to wear.
- Compatible with stock front crossmembers or QA1 lower control arms; for vehicles with QA1 tubular crossmembers, consider SKU 52883 as an alternative.
