Curt,
Joe A said he was looking at this a while back but haven't heard from him
about this project.
When I installed my Addco last year, I had the same quandry. Someone told me
that the bushings are meant to fit all near the apex of the bend of the bar,
here's a link to mine

ends loosely connected to the lower arms, try sliding the mounts near the
end as I did. It fit and it works.

Subject: [TR] Alternative mounts for TR3A ADDCO front sway bar.
I'm installing an ADDCO front anti-roll bar to my 59TR3a. The mounts that
hold the straight part of the bar in front are SUPPOSED to bolt to the
bumper brackets. The mount hardware needs to be longitudinal to the car, but
the bumper brackes angle out so that only the bottom hole will line up with
the bumper brackets.
I guess I can make an additional little angle iron tab for the top hole, or
else weld the bottom part of the hardware to the bumper brackets, but that's
not very elegant.
Is someone making an alternative mount, (Joe Alexander?) or does someone
have a trick solution to this problem?
Thanks,
Curt
