front sway bar
 

what are you guys running for the front sway bar

Re: front sway bar
 

a good cheap one for the lowered trucks is the bigger 1-ton sway bar mounted directly to the frame. i think they are the same on 3/4-tons too. and the poly bushings make a big difference if you drive the pizz outta your truck like a maniac, which is most of us i assume lol

Stock is all you need for our trucks. Bigger is better. Check out the how to I did in the FAQ section. Lots of good info.

I have a wrecking yard 1 - 1/4 inch front bar from a big ol 8 lug suburban on my 78 1/2 ton. I always have my eyes peeled for a stock rear bar, but haven't actually seen one yet.

My truck had no bar, and the original '78 shocks when I got it...the difference was like night and day.

Same here. I was running a C/20 bar until I replaced it with a Ride Tech "Muscle Bar"...:metal:

Re: front sway bar
 

big diff in the muscle bar?

Re: front sway bar
 

Same here. I used Prothane bushings and mounted it directly to the frame. What a difference! Definitely the best thing you can do for the handling, if your truck didn't come with one. I too am looking for a rear bar, but I don't think it will be as noticeable.

looked at the muscle bar its kinda expensive is it worth it

Belltech. Combined with the 4.5/6 drop, truck handles AMAZING! Like a gocart. As you can see only after 2 winters, the bar has some surface rust though.

wow, how much travel does that bump stop have on your truck? i think that would have alot to do with handling too

Re: front sway bar

Went to the local junk yard and pulled one off 80. Cleaned it up, fresh paint, And bushing mounts from LMC. All good to go.
Its a MUST have!
