I have a 1939 Deluxe Coupe that has a dropped front axle and it looks like a 1941 sway bar assembly was installed. I don't think it was done correctly. It looks like the previous owner, possibly with help from friends did the install.

It looks like the shackle for the sway bar end was welded to the top of the wishbone perch pin. And the thru bolt for the shackle is up tight to the side of the dropped axle.
The steering/ride handling is harsh and has almost a little buckboard wagon feel to it. It also has tube shocks which may be the wrong length or pressure.

I tried to get pictures but they came out real dark and was unable to see any detail.

What is everyone's thoughts?

Thanks,
Mike
Mike...A '40 assembly!



The bar and set-up below is 1940. The shock is NOT Ford.
