Not  to contradict, but to elaborate, any of the 67's with a more  
performance
oriented motor and a manual tranny typically had both Radius  Rods installed
from the factory. This included the 400's (AT & Manual)  the 326 H.O. with
a manual tranny (possibly with the AT as well?) and even  the Sprint-6 with 
a 3 or 4 speed manual. (My 67 Sprint-6 3-speed had them  both, it was also 
Mayfair Maize KJ)

Pontiac knew from the get-go  that the rear mono-leaf springs would flex & 
bind under torque causing  excessive wheel hop etc. and designed these to 
help the issue. In 68 they  went to multi-leaf rear springs, while the 
Camaro played catch up and  didn't get this under control until late 68 
into the 69 production  year.

I would imagine that the PST Bushings, while designed after the  Camaro set
would be close enough and should work? Let us  know...

Richard, I cannot speak for Camaros,  but only the 400 Firebirds 
had both side traction bars. My originally 326  car had only the 
right side. It now has the left hand side from a donor  car and 
the PST bushings fit both just fine.
