Nope, a panhard bar keeps the differential centered, pivoting from a frame rail; while a sway bar is in torsion, hooking the two sides of the axle together, but constrained in the middle (only for position - it still twists) to dampen the relative movement of the axle, one side to the other. A sway bar provides some of the same action as a weak shock absorber, but is there to lessen body roll. Evolvo posted a good link to a universal swaybar kit from Speedway - looks like it would be ideal for your Merc.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
