All entirely true, this is what I did. Worked beautifully. Front sway bar on a
regular Dak is 28mm, on an R/T it's 30mm. Get polyurethane bushings while yer at
it. Regular Daks don't have rear sway bars, R/Ts do. Also: R/T's have different
shocks, get them. Huge difference in handling. Huge. Trust me.
