Does any company make sway bars for a 73 Indian (Dodge Chassis)? Shocks are new, springs are good, but a good set of sway bars would help allot in keeping it between the lines.

Actually, check your steering play.  That helps to stay between the lines more than anything else.  What is usually thought of as a problem only sway bars can correct is really that the steering gear hasn't been adjusted... like ever.  Not that sway bars and stabilizer wouldn't help, but you'll definitely want to do do this.  And, there are some other considerations as well, but start with this.

Good stuff in this topic, the steering adjustment instructions are about half way into it:

Thanks, the steering box is adjusted (following those instructions) and also a steering stabilizer(shock absorber for the steering). The roads in Quebec are not the greatest and it's the side to side rocking of teh body over bumps and undulations that I would like to control a little better.
