Most 318 cars, no. R/T and Rallye, yes. Some options packages included a front sway bar.

Front sway bar was standard on all '73 SE V8s and 440 coupes and hardtops. Not positive on 400s. Part of Rallye package(A57) was a rear sway bar, so there would have been a front bar. You could order a Rallye 318 2bbl, so a 318 would come with a front bar. HD suspension packages S11, 13, 15, 16 and 31 included the front sway bar. All '74 Chargers came with a front sway bar.

This is true. I have a 74 roadrunner (360/4-speed) that has only a front sway, and my 74 SS+ ( 318/auto) has both front & rear... go figure.
Ya 74 satellite sebring, factory 318 and front sway bar.

I bought a '73 RR with a 318 from the original owner back in 1978 & it had F&R sway bars. ALL Roadrunners from 1972, 3 & 4 should have both F&R sway bars - part of the RR package. Charger Rallyes too.
My '73 RR handled like a slot car - also probably the finest riding Mopar I've ever owned, right up there in comfort & handling with my old '79 300.

71-72 Chargers have TOTALLY different suspension than the 73-74. The cars are altogether different. Why do people always lump them together?????

Well because the 71-4 are the 3rd gen Chargers. Yes the front end is different and not just the supension. Different front frame rails, cross member, aprons, core support and K-frame. But there is alot that is the same. Most the rest of the body, interior and drive train is simular. More of the body is the same than not. So they are not totally different cars.
