sway bars

I have a 97 f150 what do I have to do to get a rear sway bar on it?
will I have to mod anything?
the sway bar i have is off a 2000 f250 5.4L

What exactly do you have?

I'm not 100% familliar w/ the pre-current style F-150's, but you're going to need the sway bar, end links, end link bushings, axle mounts, and frame mounts, plus hardware.

I bought all the parts from a wrecking yard I have all the hardware from the 2000 f250 I just want to know if I need to mod anything to get the bar to fit
it looks like the holes are pre stamped in the frame.

I would assume that a sway bar from a 250 would not just bolt up to a 150. The frames and suspension from the two trucks are completely different. You'd probably have better luck getting one from an Expedition.

Well then I guess one from an Expy won't work. Good luck.
