Longer front sway links?
Does anyone actually make these? I want to retain the front sway, but would like a longer link vs sway bracket spacer. Ideas?

I don't think it would work. At full lock my sway was 1/4" from hitting the coil (IIRC, it was close to hitting something) before I ditched it.

I make links for 3rd-5th Gen's, see the link posted above. My links are already an inch longer than stock, and a hell of a lot stronger. The longer links will work with up to 3" of lift. Take a look, and PM me if you want something.

There's no way a longer link would make it all fit. I was putting my sway bar back on today and without the sway bracket spacer moving the sway forward 1 inch my bar would hit my coilovers for sure with or without longer links.

Luckily I have 2.0 not 2.5's so I have a tad more space to work with.
