Default Guldstrand sway bar heim joints for C3

Anyone using the Guldstrand sway bar heim joints on the rear sway bar for a C3?, looks like you need a bar with vertical ends and can not use the stock bar with the horizontal ends...?

From Newton's book on Modifying your 68-82 corvette, references the heim joints with the sway bars, the ends on the rear bar are for a vertical mount to the heim joints. Wondering what bar mfg. makes one with the vertical end...

That looks like it is designed to work with the stock bar and not an aftermarket bar that has horizontal ends. All is not lost, just use the kit for the front, they should work with horizontal ends.

Thanks all for your input, I have an 3/4"aftermarket bar (VBP) on now, I have to locate an OEM bar with the vertical ends to use the Guldstrand heim joint links.....
