    Sway Bar Cracked (Pic)

    So I was under my truck tonight looking around for a small oil leak. I found that is coming from one or both of the transmission cooler lines. I also found that my sway bar is cracked at the linkage. What the hell? Anyone else had this problem and know where to get a new one?

    Upgrade to Hotchkis swaybars. You will be glad you did.

    My truck is a 1500 but has the HD suspension. The dealership said there were 2 different sizes and mine took the bigger of the 2. Any idea on what the sway bar diameter is on mine?

    Do both. It makes 2 times the difference. The front is good but when you do the back you will be so glad you did. I took 6 months between the front and back on mine and it was a world of difference.
    The back is easier than it looks. Drill 4 holds and tighten some bolts and you are good.

    yeah, honestly, this is from a 4link rwd car person, the rearf sway bar is better than the front, it'll also help keep equal distrubtion to the rear tires when launching and running no front bar will help the front rise quicker. Id run both for sure.
