Question Need HELP-What sway bar with backbraced 9 inch? Post pictures please.

What sway bar can I run with a backbraced 9 inch? Would like to see pictures if at all possible.

This is the only thing holding me up from getting my rear back and in the car. I didn't take it into consideration when I dropped it off. I realized that the one I have will not just bolt on the rear with the backbrace now.

Thanks,

You just need the brackets to weld to the housing and then any sway bar will work. I believe UMI, or BMR sells the brackets.

Anybody got pictures of what they are running? Toss up between a stock style drag sway bar and a full anti roll bar. What is the pros and cons on one or the other. Not sure exactly which one to go with.

Any guidance will be appreciated.

Are you still running a stock fuel tank?

Here is my MWC drag bar. Let me know if the pic is too small. The MWC bar is light and think it weighs in a 8lbs.

I am running the stock fuel tank. It will have to be one that mounts to the rearend and the links run to the frame.

Looking like the Wolfe one has my vote for now. Would like to see pictures of the Burkart one installed but no luck finding them on a standard 9 inch.

Here is an older pic, all Midwest Chassis! Works great, we cut a 1.3 60' on 275 radials with baseline settings

That's what I want, already have the MWC Fab 9.
What shocks and springs are you running.

Looks like stock style springs as big as they are.

i got the Burkhart setup on my back braced 9". dont have any pics at the moment, but I'd say its one of the best setups, being as its welded on, and also supported and welded to the center of the rear, I didnt notice if the midwest chassis does so. He also got it to me in a very fair time for being out of stock(4 days) Thanks to them I made my race that weekend! I can snap some quick pics later.

anyways, it really helped my 3800lb 6 speed lift the front even.
