Part 19: The 1991 Chevrolet (Chevy) Project Shop Truck gets a rear sway bar. But, it’s not just any store bought bar, it is a 2001 Chevy Suburban rear sway bar!  A  lot of people have adapted the OBS Suburban/Tahoe rear bars to the OBS trucks, but this is a step up from the old trucks to the NBS trucks.

Several key takeaways:
1) Not difficult, but does require some fabrication to mount the end links to the frame and the saddle brackets to the rear axle housing.
2) When mounting up the new bar, try to make it as parallel to the ground as you can.
3) The rear axle housing is 3” in diameter, so , look for axle saddle brackets that have that size. IF you cannot find any, consider using square or rectangular tubing and cutting the 3” curve out of it to make your own brackets.
4) When mounting the rear end links, be sure to angle the top of the end link to about the 12:30-1:00 position, similar to the factory installment.
