The sway bars are there and they are more beefy than any aftermarket sway bars. They are the large square tubes that are near both the frnt and rear axle and they are SOLID mounted, with no rubber bushings to dampen their affect. You can add others if you want to but it is a waste of money. You would be surprised how many people have added others and not realized that the chassis already have them. They usually swear that after spending a lot of money, the handling MUST be better. :B
I had no trouble with my "W" series Workhorse chassis so you may want to have the alignment checked and set your tire pressure at the correct psi for your weight. Since I traveled a lot in the Great Plains which is notorious for high winds, I added 4 corner air bags that I could inflate or deflate from a dash button. This stopped any swaying in high crosswinds. I also added Koni FSD shocks.
