They also make the frame braces that attach between the upper and lower forward control arm connections.

I'll be ordering the kit tomorrow and it should arrive in a couple weeks. It's one of those places where they make things per order.
I called PMT this week to inquire about ordering front and rear sway bars for my 66 Catalina and the lady told me they have the final design and it's currently being sent off for production. But you say you were able to order them? She said the guy who is more knowledgeable on the topic was out of the office and is supposed to be reaching back out to me. I currently have all the suspension off my car for a rebuild and I'd like to go ahead and throw the sway bars on while I'm at it.

Any updates to how the PMT stuff works? I got a 65 Catalina last month and I’m starting the updates to make mine a good driver. I was wondering how their stuff worked.

I didn't want to wait out PMT so I went with an Addco 857 bar. I was happy with it. I know there are several people on here that have used them. They did have to ship me out different brackets for my 66 Catalina because the ones included in the kit are too narrow for the bolt holes. I posted about this in a different thread last summer when I was installing it, but I can't recall which part number the brackets are.
