The front sway bar is a good idea. I might do that this summer. I'm curious what alignment work you got done. My understanding was that the only thing that's adjustable on these 4WD trucks is the toe-in.
Thanks for the kind words...
Correct on the alignment, just had the toe-in set and the steering wheel set straight. I wanted the camber checked and it was well within spec.

Although I already had a D44 front disc brake axle, I swapped in a 10 bolt front axle from an '87 Suburban because it already had the 3.73 gear. I put all new ball joints, axle joints, seals, and wheel bearings.

I re-geared a spare 12 bolt rear axle that I already had, and I'm saving the set with the 3.08 gears that I removed. I just didn't want to have to do both.
