I went for another long ride yesterday, and am amazed at the difference the anti-sway bar and springs made. The body doesn't lean anymore, and the braking is so much more controlled. I was always concerned about snapping one of the front leaf springs at the front perch because it just seems like a week area. Without the anti-sway bar, the axle could then move backwards and would most likely flip the truck. This probably explains why the 72s have that small bracket behind the spring to try and prevent that. With the anti-sway bar, it's now impossible for the front axle to shift backwards in the event of a spring failure. The piece of mind alone is worth the install.
