That's where I would disagree. Factory did it for years and it works fine.
We have 2 A-bodies here that we street drive and drag race. One with a factory rear sway bar and factory rear lower boxed arms. The other, I boxed the arms myself and added a factory rear bar.
Both cars drive perfectly fine on the street. Actually I'd say out of the dozen cars here, they are the best riding cars out of the bunch and the most comfortable.
They also cut 1.5 60 foot times on a DOT tire and 4,000 lbs race weight.
Not that I'm against the aftermarket bars, they are nice. I just find this method works fine, saves a few bucks, and looks bone stock when peaking under the car.
I do however have tubular upper arms on both cars that are adjustable to move the pinion angle around.
