@ DannyLlama
I have MStudt Sway Bar Links so this configuration might look a lot different than what you have.
The lower bolt of the link sits pretty close, but they haven't come in contact with the coil overs. I didn't measure, but Sway Bar itself has almost an inch of clearance.

Thanks man!!
Do you feel like the Sway bar links dropped your sway bar a bit or allowed for better fitment of the sway bar and coils?

I refer to my default response, I have a lot to learn about all this stuff lol, but being adjustable the MStudt-Links definitely give you some wiggle room. The King reservoir brackets drop the ASB a 1/2" below stock as well. I just shuffled everything around until I felt comfortable with it. I wonder if this bolt (Arrow) could be replaced with one a 1/4" shorter. Maybe I don't have it installed properly. I haven't played the radio for a couple weeks listening for any errant noises under there. I beat the truck pretty good on the trails last weekend and nothing rubbed, banged or had catastrophic failure. So my installation work seems pretty solid. I'm going with
@ MStudt
Discos anyway in the hopes of some extra articulation. All this being said, this system has dramatically improved the handling on the pavement in the corners and on the hwy. The stock set up kind of wandered at hwy speeds. Hope this helps.

If you can find something that's 7/16 x 2-1/4" that should work. A 2" is a bit short, and the next size up for me is the 2-1/2" you have.

Diff Breather ext.
Did my Rear Diff Breather yesterday underneath my dirty ass truck. Thank you
@ jgedmond
and
@ hoeftm2002
for the knowledge. I shorted myself on 3/8" fuel line, so I routed it up close to the underside of the bed (leaving slack for axle flex) and zip tied it in random secure areas and didn't cinch em very tight, just enough to keep the hose in place.

Torque Pro
I know this is an old tune for most of you. Did the Torque Pro app this morning. Thank you
@ JeremyB
!!!
Pretty cool stuff with the 2 different Trans temp sensors, Engine Coolant sensor and Coolant sensor. Found an old tablet I had laying around that will serve as my new gauge cluster- just got find a way to mount it in the cab. Tested the Converter sensor by hitting it with manual shifting and some rpms. It definitely registers changes quicker than the pan sensor.

Wet Okole and a Baja Rack
Got a couple things done yesterday. Wet Okole fit is top notch.
Hung my Baja Rack from the garage door tracks and pulled the Runner underneath, and lowered it right on to the brackets.

Any tips for installing the lower seat covers? I put mine in not long ago but getting it to go behind the plastic was quite difficult. Looks like you did a better job....I'm planing on re-adjusting mine again soon.

It wasn't real easy, but I just fed the straps and buckles in their respective spots in relation to the seat, and then tucked it in like a shirt. The plastic valance around the seat is probably more pliable down here in Florida, mid to high 80s yesterday, so that may be one reason it didn't fight me. I'm tall and have long arms, so that helps as well. Good Luck!
