front sway bar questions

Did W250 4x4 1st gens have a front sway bar?, the only one i've seen with one is a 93 w350 dually a friend of mine owns. Mine doesn't have one, it seems to want it.

The D250 LE's had a front bar. I just rebuilt the front end of the truck and replaced the links as well as the bushings on the bar.

Just for the record I am confident any 2wd D250 had the bar, I am fairly confident it won't fit a 4x4. It seems everyones w250 has the bar. Does anybody out there have a parts truck who would sell me the bar and hardware? All that i have is the spring plates with the bar mounts welded to them. Please don't say salvage yards as that just doesn't happen around here, even if it did dealers are usually cheaper on new parts!

Funny you should bring this up. My W350 dually came the same way your D250 came. Axle mounts for antisway bar and nothing else. Tried to find a bar over here in VA and had the same luck. There is one after market company that offered to bend one for me but they are pricey.
