Factory rear sway bar on a budget

Stopped by the local pull a part today. I found a rear sway off a super duty with all the brackets. Someone had already pulled the axle so the only thing holding the sway bar on was the two upper link bolts. They even put the nuts back on the brackets!! Took me longer to walk out on the yard than it did to remove the sway bar. The best part.......$15 for the complete package!! Cha-Cing!!


Perfect bolt on fit. I had to remove the skid or whatever it is on passenger side shock mount and trim it. That took longer than the whole install. The links may be a bit long. I'll likely pop them back off and shorten them.

$15 and 30 minutes I have what Ford should have done at the factory
