I broke my rear sway bar a couple of months ago, and I was suppossed to be getting a used solid one, but I guess the guy who was selling it doesn't want to now, or something. Anyone have any suggestions on a replacement, or other bolt on kit to cover the rear sway bar(pan hard bar?). I plan on using a saleen s351 front sway bar if that matters. Thanks guys. chris
not looking to spend a lot of cash on this right now, just something that will work for a daily driver, and some twisty road fun.

A sway bar is different than a panhard rod.

A sway bar restricts amount the car leans. A panhard rod (not a factory item from Ford) keeps the rear live axle in the center of the car.

When you purchase the Steeda front bar, get their recommendation for the size of the rear sway bar. Another source is Addco.

It is actually a saleen s351 front bar, and I didn't know if it would be worth investing in control arms or something instead of a new sway bar. I just don't have the cash right now to get the adjustables that I want.
