rear anti-sway bars on RWD Broughams

I remember seeing many RWD Broughams of the 80s and early 90s with rear anti-sway bars, like big Chevys with the F41 sport suspension option.

The attachment design is such that a relatively-
thinner-metal 'bracket' is used to attach the bar to the bottom of the rear suspension trailing arms (along with nuts & bolts).

Does anyone know if the RWD Cadillac bar is the same one as on a big RWD Chevy... of around late 1980s vintage, give or take??   If so, does anyone know.. a source for these attaching parts.. probably from a low rust-belt area ? ?

Finally, can anyone provide the GM part number(s) for these attaching brackets?

** UPDATE **

As a result of some very recent on-line research, I found the GM part number for the attaching bracket for Broughams through 1992:  it is #10191120.

For the record, these brackets are the same for similar-vintage RWD Caprices of '77 through '90.

I'm in process of obtaining a pair of this necessary hardware; and will post progress.. as it occurs.

to '92?   But I just bought a '93  :P

I didn't even know what an antisway bar *was* until my Crown Victoria got hit by a bus while parked (I was at a 341 hearing).   

I came out, and there was a crowd around my car, which wasn't quite the right shape any more . . .

The next morning, driving it in, I heard a "POP" as I was pulling off the freeway . . . and looking underneath, I learned what an antisway bar (of which I now had two pieces!) . . . I had it towed to a dealer . . .

I have a spare rear bar and set of lower links I was keeping for my 91 Brougham but since I am trying to sell the car I would let them go.
