53 Hornet - Need some sway bar suggestions...

Working on the 53 still... runs good, stops good, not unhappy but, getting through the corners can be a bit disconcerting... lots of body roll.
So... my question; Does anyone have part numbers or known swaybars that will fit, both for the front and the back ?

Thanks

The Old Timer...

Contact Dale Cooper, he has heavier front swaybars which really improve cornering and handling. Not sure that anyone has a heavier rear swaybar.

If Dale is out I would install a mid 90's Ford Ranger

the car came with good sway-bars. Make sure they're connected.

The Panhard bar at the rear most likely needs new bushings. And as Uncle Josh suggested , make sure the front links are in good shape and tight.

How do you determine what type of replacement bushings you need? i.e. size and material?

Orig anti-sway bars: 3/4" dia; HD bars: 1.125" dia. No anti-sway bar at rear.
More than double the steel in the HD bars. piaresquare.
