2002 Track Bar

I was bored this morning so I visited my local ford dealer to look over the 02s, just to see if there were any big changes, also because some people here were talking about the track bar being a little less heavy duty.

I have to tell ya, Im wondering what ford was thinking with this track bar change. It looks like a tooth pick compared to the 99 - 01's.
I thought the purpose of a SD was to be heavy duty, why would they go backwars on something like this?

I was looking at a 02 f350 in black, ex cab with leather
Shouldn't everybody own 3 SD's???
My wife thinks not, when I mentioned it, she became very quiet, waiting for me to say "I'm only joking" , needless to say, I didn't and now she's a little cold to me.:-X23
I have only had my 250 since October and my 99 350 for a year and a few months. I don't think I'm gonna push her on this one, it could lead to BAD things!!.

I have a 2002 F-350 CC 424 SB. It was delivered last month and I checked and unfortunately it has the 3/4" track bar! I guess I'll have to replace that as well when I install my lift in a month or so.
