Bud, I'm sure you know how A body and G body like to twist when they leave. I noticed your pictures of your Malibu and it looked like you were using air bags. I had air bags in my 78 Malibu wagon stocker years ago but had trouble with pinching the one on the passenger side of the car. Have you or anyone you know ever tried to run a stock style sway bar to keep the car from twisting or used an anti roll bar for this?

Thanks for your help - Jeff
Nothing special on the ball joints. Calvert shocks can be bought from Alex at

I have an air bag in the right rear. As for the rear sway bar, my opinion is it depends on the car and HP. Knowing more about your car / engine could help some.
