the far left bracket is from P.Y. and is a repop for the original 1 1/4" front sway bar and is listed in the catalog, the bracket to the right is my original...in the early 90's I upgraded to urethane which is better...now with this correct business I am doing my best to compromise!...typical though, some how I lost one of the originals during the lost years...I believe NJSTEVE said that the original style bracket is also used on other GM products...but I could not find one...however in some ways this repop front bracket is better than O.E.M. as it has sides which secure the repop bushing...if you look at the repop bushing you can see how well the bracket will accept them...AMES sells them in the exact same design as you see here (the 1 1/4'' bushing) and possibly P.Y. lists them too, however these particular ones are from The Parts Place and they seem to be a blacker nicer reproduction...I sent my AMES back as they had a white flaky release film and were more light black...anyway I prefer the P.Y. repop bracket and everything, both front and back fits perfect so I am calling it a day with those parts!!..I definitely use reproduction items but it is a slippery slope!!!!...unless of course someone has atleast one of those original style brackets?!!..but really, even my one original bracket is rusty underneath and it will never be brand new again, so I would recommend this set up I have...especially if someone needs everything...the rear brackets are a 100% duplicate reproduction, but I could only find my 7/8 '' bushings on EBAY at a Corvette site
