Trac bar?

I don't know if this is the place to post this question, but I will anyway, and moderators, feel free to move it should the need arise.

I have a 1999 Dodge CTD with a 4" lift. I noticed the truck moves more and more with the wind and the road. I am not new to 4 wheel drives as I have been building rockcrawlers for over 8 years now. I know about 4 links and trac bars. I am pretty sure the tracbar is bad on my truck which is causing the front end to wander a bit. I also know this is a problem with the Dodge's. Can someone tell me where to get a good trac bar at a descent price? I was considering making my own, but not sure I want to go through that process on a daily driver.

Thanks
Dima

Get a lukes link. It's $70 and replaces the worn out ends with rebuildable, greaseable units. Then get a DSS steering stabalizer brace.

I would go with the DT Pro Fab hands down.

My truck drives better then new with it on. Plus it looks way cool under there.

How hard is this to build on my own... All I see is a straight rod with bushings at the end. SHould be easy as pie to make.

Ditto. I ruined my stocker banging on it the wrong way.

DT is much better than new.
