I just got my tubular lower control arms and I discovered there’s no provision to mount a sway bar. After looking at a bunch of Mustang 2 suspension kits, I see that alot of them don’t have a sway bar, is it normal to run without one ?
 
I have a '34 Plymouth with Mustang 11 front axle and no sway-bar. You have to ask yourself, "How much of an animal am I going to drive like." If you're going to drive fairly sensibly around corners you won't miss the sway-bar.
This is only an opinion.

I used the Pinto version (same thing) no sway bar and worked fine [cl
I did have to move the strut to the rear to clean up the front of the frame. [;)
Good luck with it. :D

We didn't put a sway bar on my uncles Model A in the beginning, but it would get swaying at highway speed. After installing one, it handled like a slot car! It made an incredible difference. It was just a matter of welding a couple of tabs on the lower control arms. I took the same approach on my truck, only right from the beginning. I'd highly recommend it.
 
If you install drop spindles the need for a swaybar is less but, if at original ride height, a bar is a major improvement.
