That is not accurate, but you go ahead and call it what you want.
Anti-roll, anti-sway or stabilizer (according to GM parts) are all the same. The purpose of the panhard bar (axel tie rod according to GM parts) is to only keep the housing centered in the car. It is not a side to side "sway bar". So if it came with an anti-roll, why can't it be replaced with an aftermarket unit?
