I want to put a rear sway bar on my 69.

Not looking to spend $500 either.

Npd has a un-named bar 7/8", for $130 it attaches to the frame, which I kinda prefer over say the hotchkis that sandwiches the floor pan sheet metal.

Bell tech also appears to bolt to the frame rails.

Any opinions or advise would be appreciated

 

I recently installed the Hotchkis rear swaybar in my 69. This newer version of the kit includes a frame brace that bolts between the framerails and also to the floorpan. It provides a much stronger mounting point for the drop-links than the older version without the brace, where the drop-links were bolted directly to the floorpan(as you mentioned). Plus the brace also helps to prevent twisting of the frame on hard cornering.

It was a pain in the butt to install(especially the brace), but I am very pleased with the results.
