Default No rear swaybar on rcsb?!

Hi all,

I had my truck up on a lift at my buddy's muffler shop just to see what it looks like under there. One of the guys asked me what some threaded holes were for. I got to looking, and I realized that my truck has no rear swaybar! I don't know if this is a rcsb thing or if I just got gypped. Any of you know?

My RCSB Sport has a rear sway bar.

go to the dodge .com and see how the truck is built. There is a exploded view of the under side

No diagram needed-my axle is obviously set up for the swaybar. It simply is not there. The holes for the bolts that hold it in place are empty.

That's not good. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be there on all of the trucks.

Looking at the brackets it bolts to, I see no sign that it has ever been pressed up against those brackets. I'm guessing that the factory somehow simply forgot to install it.

The funny thing is, I've been raving about how well this truck rides. I wonder how it'll be when all the key suspension parts are actually present?
