Rear sway bar for a 1 ton

I found a good deal on a cab & chassis 14 bolt rear on Craigslist, went to take a look at it and it turns out this thing is a bolt in! I knew spring perchs would be correct but this came out of an 85 motor home and doesnt use the staggered shocks. Now for the cool part..this thing had a massive 1-3/4" sway bar and he threw it in the deal..all for 200.
I even got the frame brackets so all I will have to do is drill 8 holes for the brackets and its a done deal!

Re: Rear sway bar for a 1 ton

The motor home looked to be based off the P-30 chassis so these may be on the chip and bread truck stepvans. I even snagged the tilt column but haven't looked it over to good to see how much different it is from our trucks.

Re: Rear sway bar for a 1 ton

I almost had one off a '68 P-30. Then I stopped since there is literally no leaning in the back of my one ton int eh corners.
