any opinions on a front sway bar for my 1950 pickup? I cruise at 60 to 65 with a Patrick ring and pinon 3.55 gear.

Put one on my 54, and love it..Actually makes it steer easier, and keeps the front end level when cornering instead of leaning over..Got mine from Chevy Duty for I think $139.95

A lot of places sell them. I think they all come from Chassis Engineering. Very easy install. You might want to consider doing both ends while you're at it.

Doing the back end will help lots too. CPP has a kit and I'm sure others do too. After looking on CPP's site I thought I could pull a sway bar from under a mid 80s caprice and buy the mounts/bushings for lots cheaper than they sell the kit for, but who knows? The bushings/rod and axel tube mount kits are on the shelves at Autozone and I saw them at the shop that rearched my springs too!
