Default OEM anti sway bar

I like the looks of the OEM sway bar found on TRD Sport 2WD Tundra's. It's a better set up than the Hellwig.
I have found the part's list for everything needed except the perch(s) that are welded to the axle tube.

Are these items available?
Has anyone done it yet?

Thanks

Question

As I'm casting about for a rear antiroll bar for my `03 V8 Accesscab, I'm curious about why you say "It's a better set up than the Hellwig."

In what way(s)?

The whole thing bolts up to the vehicle frame rock solid.
No U-bolts.
No universal link rods.
No slip or slide.

The OEM set up is very clean and well designed.
I have pictures that I will post when I find them.

Find a sport side and look under it - you will see what I'm talking about.

BTW, I have the Hellwig on my T100 and after 3 attempts at keeping it in place (this includes new brackets from Hellwig @ N/C) I am happy with it. I also have a Hellwig for my Tundra but would like to find a way to put the OEM set up on my truck...

Has anyone tried installing the Hellwig over the axel? It would probably require shorter end links, but I'm not sure if it would fit because of the muffler. I agree the factory setup is nicer and doesn't hang as low.
