Yes, but you need new endlinks. I'll find the link.

Re: Extreme Blazer Rear Sway bar on a Sy?
I've put this bar on a Syclone using the stock GM hardware. You do have to drill three holes to use the GM bracket and I would recommend doing it with the stock hardware. The main thing I don't like about using the other types of end links is that you have a very small grade 8 bolt trying to hold everything in place.
I have seen on other sway bars that the bolt will bend due to the force put on it by the sway bar. The GM end links I've used are much beefier and will handle the stress put on it.

Just my 2 cents.

Hey Warren, do you still have the install pics from the other thread? http://www.warrenbowley.com/swaybar/installed.jpg and such aren't there anymore. I was just thinking again about doing this, so the pics would be great to have.

I did manage to find the pictures. Looks like it was my old crappy digital camera that took them. I've got them zipped at http://www.warrrenbowley.com/syclone/swaybar.zip. I've re-linked the images in the other post, but without thumbnails. Hope this helps you Bill and anyone else looking to do this. If I ever drive the truck again I'll let you know how it handles.
