Default TXT Sway bars

Can anyone post a picture of what the sway bar looks like so that I can try and make one out of some piano wire? I never got any when I got my TXT in trade and the manual does not show it. I think this will help to keep the front tire down while turning left (Or right?) and keep the rig from flipping over on it's side, HA! Any info would be great. I would have bought a set but cannot find any in stock.
Thanks

Probably not, I was just trying to keep front tire planted on ground to keep her from going belly up, HA!

I have just sitting here,

The sway bar goes through the lower links (thanks EeePee) and a nut at what sticks out the other end. Pm me for more info, but will be unable to get onto any computer on monday for about a month or so.

I changed my info in that post thanks for refresher. I now remember that the uppers are too triangulated for the sway bars
