Default V8 front swaybar in 6cyl?

Hi All,

Had a search, couldn't find anything.

Just wondering if anyone knows for sure whether a V8 front swaybar will fit in a 6cyl model?

Thanks,

Justin.

Justin - I dont see why it couldnt, after all the suspension should be very similar to each other. Although the sway bars for the V8's were larger from factory than the 6's. You need to make sure the right D shackles are used to hold the sway into position.
