I have used Addco sway bars front and year on a couple of Vanagons I have
owned with improved results, especially when using using quality shocks.
Handling and body roll is definitely improved, but don't expect any sway bar
combination to solve complete control in windy conditions - it does offer
some control, but not completely - remember that you're essentially pushing
a BRICK thru the airflow ;-).  It's best to install both front and rear
for the best control.  Addco uses a 1 inch front and 7/8" rear.  See their
links:

I have also used Sway-A-Way's bars as well on the Type 1 and Type 2 thru 79,
another excellent product.  After checking their site, it appears they've
dropped their Type 2 coverage, concentrating only on Type 1 & 3 models only.

I will be installing Addco on my Westy sometime this year, something that
I've put off for far too long (it's called $$$$).
