Question Rear Anti-Roll bar

Is there a rear anti-roll bar for the 11.5" `05 CTD? Know the older ones have `em. Couldn't find a "camper" package on the Dodge site...

Are you talking about the "Sway Bar"? If you are then NO. the 03 and up have taken care of that by using wider and bigger leaf springs. The 3500's even give you an extra overload leaf to help with all of that.

Fill out your sig stuff so people can help you more.

Yep, was talking about the sway-bar. Sway bars is what I know them as - they are listed as "anti-roll bar" on the sticker. Kind of like the anit-spin diff... If it were truely an anti-spin differential, how would you turn the axles

The proper terminology is anti-roll bar, because that's what it does. Sway bar is the accepted slang.

Not that anyone probably cares, just gotta be technical.

Thanks guys! $170 ain't bad. The install pics on the TDR post looked easy enough. I noticed the rear end swaying all over the place from the first turn. In the city with the pot-holes and wash-board roads the rear end doesn't want to stay planted.

Thanks again!
