Replacement links for factory rear sway bar

[RottenSquare]

What end links are you guys using for a Factory rear sway bar? Both of my links were missing on the truck (81 C30 Dually 2WD).
Rockauto and other parts sites don't list parts for a factory rear sway bar....
Local parts stores also say they don't exist and can't help me. . .
Just wondering if there are sway bar links from a different vehicle that I could order them for.
Thanks!

Many moons ago I added a dually sway bar to my lifted SRW crew cab so the links didn't reach, this is what I used -

- all thread the diameter of the hole in the sway bar
- found some donut bushings on Energy Suspension's website
- tubing to go over the all thread between the frame and lower bushing (cosmetic, painted black)
- put washers between the bushings and whatever they touch so they don't get chewed up
- don't overtighten the bushing or they'll start cracking

I drove this set up for 4 years, sold it and found it again 15 years later still rockin the sway bar. You can kind of see it in this pic.

Thanks! I guess I am just being lazy haha, figured it would be easier and cheaper to order a set of links instead of trying to make something work with parts that I would still need to source out.

1st gen Dodge 4wd's have a similar sway bar set up on the front, maybe check those links.
