Default Sway bars

How many of you have put a rear sway bar on your sixxers? I had one on their but it broke b/c of clearance issues with my exhaust. Even after tweaking the exhaust numerous times for clearance. So facking fustrating. [:@]How many of you have a swaybar on your 6?

I bought a new swaybar to replace the one that broke but decided I dont want to be bothered with the time, money, fustration of trying to refab the exhaust AGAINto clear it.
So its forsale if anyone is interested.

Its a bar that connects both rear control arms together and helps limit flex/body roll while the car is cornering. Ford quite putting them on the V6s after 96/97. From 98 and on the v6s didnt have them. Only the GTs.

IF your exhaust is in the way of the sway bar, then get the right exhaust for your car or get it properly installed.

Not the struts, the control arms.

The guy that installed my exhaust wouldnt touch it after I installed thesway bar (now broken)and it was hitting the exhaust. I tried what I could to make it clear, but dont feel like being bothered with putting the new on and going through that again. So Im getting rid of it.

Heres a link to the forsale thread w/ pics.
