Question Sway bars for GMT 900 Trucks

Does anyone make sway bars for the new trucks. Particularly does anyone make a rear anti-sway bar? I've looked on all the obvious sites but can't seem to find any suspesion components other than lowering or lift kits.

I was just thinking this this morning.... Since I lowered my truck I feel like it needs a bar more than ever... Wondering if the ADDCO kit from my 2001 would work.

I just found some on Hellwig's site:
The front is part #7685 and the rear is # 7800. The rear appears to be an adjustable 1 -1/8" sway bar which is really handy if you've lowered your truck. Summit has them on backorder til the end of this month. Summit lists them as being for the earlier model truck ('06 down), but I figure Hellwig should know better what they make. Even the picture Summit has shows the wrong bar. the price at Summit is like $284.
Not a bad price to pay to keep the *** of your truck from wringing over when you go into a turn, IMO...

I can handle having to drive it a little more for $284... they'll hit ebay eventually for cheaper than that.

you can try a z60(street suspension) one from an LTz truck for the front. and i think belltech makes one for the rear.

Sway Bars
Helwig Site link


Check here. I believe the 99 to 06 rear sway bar will fit your truck.
