Narve N Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 My 1940 Chrysler has a broken stabilizer bar and I did search in vain for years for a used replacement, before I welded what I got with preheating etc. That repaired bar lasted around 2000 miles, but is now again broken and the car really leans in turns. As far as I know, this bar is shared across all Chryslers 1940 and 1941 and of rather small dimensions so an upgrade would be beneficial. Has anyone found a newer and possibly beefier stabilizer bar and mounted that on their 1940s Chrysler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narve N Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 (edited) Found a picture with dimensions. Part #855059. I suspect several years had something similar? Edited February 12 by Narve N (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops, I guess I posted a rear kit. Speedway has a bunch of kits as does summitracing.com Edited February 13 by JACK M (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JACK M Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 This is one of those cars that benefits by relocating the shock mounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking through the speedwaymotors pages, I cannot find any that looks to be a bolt-on fit on my car? Is it maybe a procedure to narrow down what can be used and how to adapt? I was honestly hoping someone would come forward and list a solution they had made for their 40s Mopar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpwalter Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 That part was also used on 1940 and 1941 Dodge, and DeSoto cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
