I'm taking my car to the bodyshop tomorrow to get my front end fixed. It needs a new reinforcement bar (the heavy beam that is bolted onto the two front frame supports). I have an 84 Sport Coupe Camaro. I have a reinforcement bar from an 84 Z28. It says "Z28" on the bar, so I'm wondering, are they different?? Or will it work?? Thanks in advance.

 

r you talking about the "the wonder bar", the bar that bolts up to where the sway bar also bolts up, or the cross member.

 

I storngly suspect that they are different. The front fascia is significantly different on the Z28 from the 3-hole SC fascia. I seriously doubt that it will work, but I don't know that for certain.

 

If you're talking about the impact bar that sits in front of the radiator support, it is the same according to my service manual.

 

Okay, I'm pretty sure the actual reinforcement bar is the same. The only difference is the big rubber piece that sits in front of it. That is different for a Z28 bumper cover. That was the part on mine that said Z28. Thanks for the help.

 

I would definitely believe that, it is supposed to somewhat conform to the shape of the bumper cover
