QA1’s larger-diameter tubular sway bar provides the added stiffness needed to control chassis roll, resulting in flatter cornering, quicker turn-in, and improved overall stability. The tubular design offers excellent strength while keeping weight to a minimum.

Direct Bolt-On Performance Upgrade

Designed for a straightforward installation, this front sway bar bolts directly to factory mounting locations—no cutting, welding, or fabrication required. Each kit includes high-quality polyurethane bushings and heavy-duty mounting hardware, ensuring long-lasting performance and improved road feel right out of the box.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)

What is the diameter of the QA1 front sway bar for 1964–1966 Mustangs?

The QA1 front sway bar designed for 1964–1966 Ford Mustangs features a 1.250-inch (1-1/4”) diameter. This larger size provides a substantial increase in stiffness compared to the original factory sway bar, resulting in far better control during aggressive driving and cornering.

Why does a larger sway bar make such a big difference in handling?

Increasing sway bar diameter helps limit chassis roll when cornering, keeping the front tires flatter on the road. This leads to better front-end traction, quicker steering response, and a more planted feel, especially at today’s higher driving speeds. For classic Mustangs, it’s one of the most noticeable upgrades you can make for confidence and control.

Does the QA1 front sway bar install without modifications?

Yes. The QA1 52802 front sway bar is engineered as a true bolt-on upgrade for 1964–1966 Mustangs. It mounts directly to the factory locations on the unibody and requires no drilling, cutting, or welding. All necessary mounting hardware is included for a straightforward installation.

Is this sway bar compatible with other QA1 suspension components?

It is. This sway bar is specifically designed to work with QA1 tubular control arms and QA1 Pro Coil coilover systems. When combined, these components create a well-balanced suspension setup that maximizes handling performance and ride quality. It is important to note that this sway bar is NOT designed to work with the stock control arms or with other aftermarket control arms.

What suspension upgrades provide the biggest improvement for a 1964–1966 Mustang?

The most impactful suspension upgrades include tubular control arms, coilover shocks, and upgraded sway bars. Together, these components reduce body roll, improve ride control, sharpen handling, and allow for ride height and stance adjustments—all while maintaining street-friendly drivability.
