Default best anti roll bar for stock gas tank.

Whats the best anti roll bar for a 4th gen Fbody with a stock gas tank. the above the rearend wolf kit will not work. I currently have the UMI drag bar which mounts similar to a stock sway bar but the links are interfering with my afco shocks now that i have them mounted differently than stock.

Midwest Chassis ARB

The only one I know of that mounts like a factory swaybar and will not make contact with the shocks like a modified swaybar will, nor will it get in the way of the gas tank. Not to mention lightest on the market a very well priced.

Please post pictures of the weld on tabs on the body side. I need to see how this is gonna fit. The locaton of the UMI tabs on the body side are no good for how my new shock mounts are now that the car is this low.

I'll see if I can locate a good picture of them welded into place. They weld on the frame similar location to the swaybar bracket location.

It will bolt onto any housing that has swaybar brackets already welded into place. You wouldn't want to use a bolt on swaybar clamp with something like a ARB as it will twist them.

One thing about a Moser housing is you never know what the swaybar mounting location is so they normally will need to be built to order as they always range in width. Only companies that keep them consistent is our fabricated housings and Strange so we always have those two options in stock.

If you do not have welded on swaybar brackets we have those as an option then mounting width would not matter.

The yellow arrows show where it welds to.

Looks good. I think it will work. I will measure my weld on mounts. Do you have a black one in stock that may work if its same as a strange? If not, How long to build one?

If you have a Moser it will range anywhere from 29-3/4 to 31, they are NEVER consistent. So with that said I doubt I will have one in stock for you and build time depends on if you want it powder coated or not on custom built items.

Midwest looks like a good piece!

I run the Trz anti-roll/ panhard bar unit using nasty stock location fuel cell, works great!

I ran a Wolfe single into the lower 1/2 of the 9 second range with no issues, going to try it as it is to see find it's still enough. Fwiw.
