No front bar from the factory, but soon I will add one. I have all the brackets necessary, but haven't purchased a bar yet.
Catfish...I'm swapping over to the round headlamps using parts from the 84 that Superbeast is working on. Member "Lee7673" is looking for a set. I told him to send you a PM.

How about the newer style ?

I would imagine later on the front swaybar was standard across the board.

The plug for the hi-beam should be tied back.
No big rush Ken, I'm not ready to swap in yet. How about we make the trade at the campout in April if you can make it?
