Needing front sway bar info.
 
My short bed doesn't have a front sway bar on it and I think I would like to put one on. From what I gather it will may a big difference in how it handles. Since I am rebuilding the whole front steering, suspension and putting a drop kit on it I want to put this on now. Is there a certain diameter size I should be looking for. Any manufacturers making a good aftermarket sway bar. Will a factory sway bar be just as good with new bushings.

Just find a factory one ton sway bar for up front and add urethane bushings to the middle only and keep the outside rubber for factory setup. This is the best bang for your buck swaybar you can get.

My '78 didn't have one, so I got a big ass 1.25" bar at the junkyard from an 8 lug suburban.
