I also have a sway bar i will be installing. This truck didnt originally have one so any tips are welcome!
Mine didn't have one either. I found a factory sway bar, then I got the brackets ( LMC TRuck Front SwayBar Brackets (2) #34-1383) and bushings off ebay.

The holes are all there from the factory, so it is no issue to hook it up to the lower a-arms and frame.

If you can do it, find a bar from a 3/4 ton or 1-ton for the heavy/thicker diameter bar. I think mine was the standard 1/2 ton bar, but it made a heck of a difference. One day I'll probably do the drop spindles with stock springs and shocks also.
