1986 2wd frontend

IM working on my front end and replace anything that look or just seem bad. My truck has yet to be inspected but when i drove my truck it would pull to any which way i turned. So..

My lowed ball joint passanger side was bad and some steering arms ( aka tie rods and such) but for some reason as i look at the truck i couldnt stop and think somethink is missing under this truck. Turns out unlike my other 86 2wd it had no strut bar at all not even the bracket that are tapped to the frame.

(im using parts from my old 86 to put the strut bar on so i have better handling. This is ok right)

My other question is this why would two exact truck One being from canada with no added packages at all have a strut bar and a truck from flint mich. with the sliverado package not have a strut bar


UNderlined stuff is questions the rest in back story.
