06 Megacab Dually Rear Swaybar?

I just special ordered an 06 Megacab Dually. I was wondering if anyone knew of a source for a rear swaybar for this vehicle? Dodge does not seem to offer an option for one. Could not find one in the Mopar catalog either. Thanks.

I checked a megacab dually that was on the dealer lot and it did not have one. Nowhere in Dodges literature does it show a swaybay as either standard equipment or an option on a megacab dually or single. Why would it not need a sway bar? It would seem to me that ride might be sacrificed slightly to the benefit of better handling. Better handling would be a definite advantange when towing on mountainous roads. Itwuld also be an advantage when heavily loaded.

The frame and suspension changes in the 3rd Gen over the past have really eliminated the need. My truck is lifted, has tall tires, and I still have never felt the need for any more "sway" control with a load in the back. To each is own...but I don't miss the anti sway in the rear at all...and really enjoy the new found axle travel!
