sway bar question

did ford change the diameter of the front sway bar for 08+ super duties? the one on my 05 looks to be only about a 1/2" in diameter and the one on my buddies 08 FX4 looks to be about an inch.

I don't know about the '08s but it sounds like they must have changed the diameter between 2004 and 2005. Mine is 1-1/4" diameter.
