Default Got some goodies last night

So last night, I helped one of my friends change the brakes in his Mountaineer. For my payment, he gave me a set of FRPP 4.30 gears and a bullitt suspension kit. The suspension needs a rear spring because he couldn't find it. All of it is brand new, as he was gonna put it in his mustang, but flipped it when a tire blew out a while back. I still need to buy the tuner and rebuild kits for the gears and all, but I'll probably wind up getting them within the next few weeks. Not bad for a few hours work.

Just a quick question. Would it still be OK to use the stock sway bars with the bullitt springs and struts/shocks? He also didn't have the sway bars that came off the bullitt. I know the bullitts front is thicker and the rear is smaller than a GT.

My friends suck, I helped a friend change brakes before and all I got was a "I hope we don't have to do that again soon".
