Chris,

Photo is the diff and rear sway bar of my '41 120 during "restoration", or should I say rehabillitation, it wasn't entirely a "correct" restoration.

One end of the sway bar mounts on the left rear spring diff mount with the other (right side) end attached to a small shock absorber mounted on the right side of the rear crossmember.

EDIT - The shock itself is a small lever type, looks like a minature Ford Model A shock, if you've seen 'em? If I can find a photo of the shock itself, I'll post it.

Found one! Also a pic of the diff mount end of the sway bar, that was a b*****d to get off, needed some magic words to help it come loose.

Thanks for posting that, Mal. I am going to have to crawl under there tomorrow and see what mine looks like. Your shocks look twice as long as mine and I don't recall even having a sway bar like that on my car. I'll try and take a couple of pics whilst 'in the position'. Chris.
