I’m looking to installing a front sway bar on my 74 D100. Looking for suggestions on which bar I should get.

The factory unit works fine for me. They are getting tough to find though, in my neck of the woods anyway. Any pics of yours on how the bar is mounted?

Here are some pics of one I found in a yard. Sorry they are not very good. Mine is sitting on the floor and not installed yet. They go to the strut rods. Thanks. I was wondering how the front of the bar mounted

Cool, mighty nice of you to do that. I guess my next step is to find one.

Rear mounts like some of the aftermarket C body bars. Problem with the aftermarket bars is no front Mounting plates

for the rear you can use a rear bar and mounts under a d100/150 chassis from a DAK. not to hard to retro fit one or find. don't see why a after market rear cant be made to work.
member 340shorty did that to his d150 before he left us. (RIP Larry Green)
IIRC we talked the mod over and you use a 2000 Dakota R/T factory sway bar & mounts. IIRC you might have to drill holes in the frame and the bar mounts on rear axle with links to frame. My priority first is the from bar. From what I’ve seen the aftermarket bars don’t come with the stock style mounting brackets. As far as the rear bar the Dakota bar sounds interesting.
