As for the rear, just enough to level the ride with the front, I think 1.5in?

Would it make sense to switch out the front end links with the upgraded pair and keep the rear stock or would the increased height stretch the stock links too much?


Thanks in advance.
Would make more sense the switch out the rear with an upgraded pair, and leave the front. The rear will be longer so you can get your sway bar back to its OEM position. The front links will be the same length as OEM, and you want it like that.

Is it possible to get replacement ball joints? I had the nut fall off one and mess up the threads pretty bad on one so I can't get a nut back on very far.

Hey Mike!

Got a quick question for ya. Had some dobinsons extended rear sway bar links on my 5th gen. All in all, not impressed. Totally shredded in under 2 years. Looking for an upgrade and have literally only heard good things about your links.

Looking for rear links only. Currently have 3" lift with Dobinsons 3" 677v coils and extended travel kings. Live in the Northeast where salt is a big winter problem lol. Not sure I fully understand the difference/benefits between the Heim links and the Forged links on your website. I'm leaning the Forged links, but any chance you have a 2-sentence explainer as to what the pros/cons of each are? Thank you!!

Planning to lift ~2" all around on my GX470 with the eibach 2.0 coils and rear adjusting springs and matching shocks. Eyeing the forged front and rear end links. Would I need both front and rear? TIA

How do I get free shipping? Will these work on a stock 3rd gen 4runner. Will be doing a lift next year, but my OEM sway bar links are shot.

I wouldn't try using extended sway bar links on a stock vehicle since they'll put your sway bar in a bad position.

I do not offer free shipping on sway bar links either.

I’m replacing my sway bar bushings and I’m reassembling my sway bar links. I can figure out/remember how much thread should be showing through the nut on top of the sway bar/link?
