Factory Rear Anti-Sway Bar?
Did the second generation ever come with a rear anti-sway bar from the factory? I don't believe 87-96 ever did so I am climbing the generation latter to find and adapt one at a fraction the cost of an aftermarket rear bar. (possibly Durango?)
Does a rear bar even make a noticeable difference with an empty bed??

Why do you want a sway bar? The ones from the 8.25 axle should work(97-04)

I did read that, I would have to flip it and mount it to the frame with the link ends connected to the shock mounts. My truck does not handle very well I'm after a sport car ride or as close to it as I can, I hear a rear bar may make it oversteer though which I already do but that is because I do not have a front bar right now.

Brand new $10ea shocks so they suck, I know a front bar is going to help tremendously. You can make a truck ride like a car, you just have to sacrifice payload capacity.
I'm thinking the rear bar is mainly for a fully loaded box however on small trucks I have read they make a bigger difference with an empty bed if the truck is smaller because the suspension is softer. I will have to see how she rides after 4 Bilsteins and a front bar but it is good to know they are stock if I need one. They do sell aftermarket rear kits for the GenI Dakota so it must make some sort of a difference?
