Re: 1967-69 Camaro Rear Sway Bars

In order to facilitate the installation of the sway bar as listed in the 11-74 dated Chevrolet P&A catalog, do you know if it required the removal and replacement of the bottom rear leaf spring bracket? I have looked on-line for 1969/70 Novas with factory rear sway bars and from what I can see the rear sway bar is apparently mounted to the lower leaf spring bracket versus the frame assembly.
I will need to locate a 69/70 Nova factory manual to confirm.

There were no 69 Novas equipped with a factory rear sway bar. Starting in 1970 the F41 option included the rear sway bar, but this didn't show up until the spring of 1970. The Nova setup also involved welded supports near the underside of the trunk for attaching the "drop down" links that connected to the bar. I don't think the 67-69 Camaro bars had this feature. As mentioned the 70 setup is a "rare bird"...the Yenko Deuce boys and late 70 L78 Nova lovers will pay dearly for them, if you have the complete setup.
