by "long ear" I assume you mean notched ear, right? One goes on top, one goes on bottom. On mine the driver's side is top and passenger side bottom.


I don't have notches, I didn't get the sway bar stuff

Re: 66 2wd power disc brake and drop beam swap. looking for

What are the options for a sway bar if I want to do one, where can I get a good one are there any links to how to's for doing a sway bar The sway bar on my '66 F100 came from a '76 F250. The disc brakes, i-beams, radius arms, etc all came from a '78 F150. http://i1027.photobucket.com/albums/y334/37...
