Which front sway bar kits do NOT require modification?

I don't want to drill holes in my k-frame or modify anything, I want one that just bolts into the original position and doesn't cost me my first born. Who makes it?

I have an extra factory set up off of a 69.  I think that you still need to swap out the control arms with it, IIRC.  I have them and can look.  I have only seen aftermarket ones that require drilling or bolting a bracket to.  I haven't seen them all, I am sure.

Dennis at Firm Feel says their setup uses three mounting points instead of two to make them more sturdy. While I can't argue with that logic I really don't want to drill holes in my k-frame.

You have to swap out control arms? What do you mean?

I saw those but I have to wonder about the placement of the grease fittings. That same spot is where I have big wear spots on my OE brackets from previous owners using them as skid plates.

That looks like a neat set up, but like you said, mine are flat there, too.  I need to double check, but I thought that the control arms for sway bars, had the bracket on them from the factory and ones without didn't.
