Default Hotchkiss Sway Bar?

So, I know there are a thousand posts about sway bars.

I think from reading that Toyota makes one too? It seems the Helwig works good, looks crappy. So what is the cost of the OEM bar? Any good resources for a good discount?

Anyone have the Toyota sway bar?

You can only get the OEM sway bar on the 2WD sport model.

The mounting tabs are wellded to the axle.
You can order all of the part$ except the mounting tabs.
You will have to fab them yourself.
I have not found anyone that has done this yet.

The Hellwig is a better deal - for now.

That doesn't look like a Hellwig to me. The end-links mount towards the front of the truck, not the rear. Like this:

That looks like the factory stype sway-bar in the sport package. Notice the mounts on the axle.
