Default 5.0 Foxbody rear sway bar install on 2.3

I found one at the junkyard and painted it ford blue. I strapped it on and I trust the car more around corners at high speeds. I love it.
Check it out. Took a total of 20 minutes from taking it off the 5.0 at the yard to painting it to putting it on mine.

$11 for the sway bar at the local junk yard. I was going to grab the front one but I thought "It's thicker and the 2.3 will never need that." Will it?

It took me 3 weeks to find it. I'm sure they do.

I got a 29mm Sway bar for the front of my fox off a 1987 T-Bird. I have pics on my profile of it too.

Does the front end feel better than it did? Stiffer or something?

It'd definitely be worth getting the bigger bar in the front.
