Sway bars on a ....
Bump but using newer bars and wonder if this could be done on ours?
His rear axle looks to be a 9" but I think what he pulled the bars from had a 8.8 rear?
I don't know if the front tires clear the bar or not also wonder if this setup could work on ours?

On another site they say 80's up think it was 96 bars will work.
Someone will check if or how hard it will be to fit the rear 8.8 mounts, that seams like the ones you can find, a 9" like I have.
I think the hardest part is the front spring / beam mount as I also don't know if the later trucks the bars come from can work or not?
So we may have to do something like was done in the link and make the mounts for the front spring / beams.
It is not the "sea sick" that gets me it is the "more stabile feel, especially at freeway speeds. Road bumps no longer feel like they will throw the truck into the next lane" that I get.
It is like the factory did not workout bump steer on the truck.

I have been posting over there and he said he did not realize they had front mounted bars on other trucks.
It was what he came across and measurements looked good so he went with it.
