These are from my 1981 - should be the same.




Bracket bolts to the frame with slot in bushing oriented towards the front.




Sway bar end attaches to link which attaches to bracket attached to the rear trailing arm.




Picture of bracket, bolts and plate that mounts in the trailing arm, threaded for bolts




Picture of link between sway bar and bracket bolted to trailing arm


Found this kit on Ebay with good picture of all required hardware (except the actual sway bar).
Cannot vouch for vendor - just showing parts.

you might have to scrape some paint away to find the holes on your frame .

Here is what it looks like if you have a after market rear bar such as vb&p kit using the factory OEM trailing arm mounting.

Hi,
There are nuts welded inside the frame rail to receive the bolts that mount each of the bushing's brackets.
Regards,
Alan
