Sway Bar Question???

Can a person put a sway bar on one of our trucks that was never equipped with one? I was thinking about putting one on my '68 4x2.

If you don't want to Junk yard shop...ECE has the complete kit for $150 or somewhere around that. You want the 1 1/4" sway bar.

And the bigger trucks (3/4 ton, one ton) will normally have bigger sway bars under them too.

There are 2 rivets that need to come out of the front crossmember before you can bolt the brackets up.
