Subject:Swapping late sway bar links to '82?
From:Shawn Wright
Date:Wed, 29 Mar 2006 07:40:32 -0800

I have heard it is possible to swap the later, straight style sway bar end links
(popsicle sticks?) onto an early van ('82) that came with the early "bent"
ones. I'm just looking for confirmation of this before I try to find the parts to
do it.

Also, nobody other than BD seems to list the sway bar mount bushings #251
411 041, for some reason. I'm hoping to find a CDN source. I'm sure I got
these from Bowwow years ago, but they don't list them now. Any tips
appreciated.

Thanks.
