Sway Bar links HELP!! Fox Suspendion

[TE+6]

Does anyone know where to get sway bar links extended? I just lifted my 2014 TE 3" with fox suspension. So far it feels great but I was not able to drop the sway bar because there are 2 bars going from the frame of the car to the front bumper and does not allow me to relocate the bar. I am trying to get the sway bar links extended so I can complete the job but it seems like this part does not exist anywhere.
I heard that MOOG links are about 1" longer than OEM. Has anyone had any experience with this?

I appreciate any comments or feedback.

Look in my sig for the link to my sway bar links.

Read nothing but good things about MStudt's links. Another option is to space down the sway bar mounts from the frame. Toytec sells a sway bar relocate kit for that exact purpose (I personally have it installed). Same result with different methods. You might be able to get washers and longer bolts (make sure they're high grade like grade 8) from a hardware store to temporarily space the mount down.

That would get it drive able with the lift and sway bar while waiting on the links. .....Or you could just run without the front sway bar until then. There are handling ramifications to that option so familiarize yourself to be sure you're comfortable with it first.

Great, thanks for the suggestions. I have tried to relocate the sway bar since the Fox came with the spacer to do so. The problem I ran into is that there is a bracket that goes from the frame of the car to the front bumper. It seems like that bracket is to bolt in the skid plate. This is why I am not able to drop the bar where it needs to go. I reached out to MStudt so I might get his links. I am going to try at least once again to see if I can get creative. If not, once I have the $200 I will reach to MStudt to purchase the links.

I'm out of town but flying back shortly. I'll take a quick look and see if I can determine what's hanging you up. Been a few months since I installed my kit so the details are fuzzy.

FATTIRE,

I was able to figure this thing out. had 4 small spacers that came with the kit that i had no clue what to do with them. After steering at the car for a bit, I realized that by removing the bracket I could place the sway bar in the right position and then re-install the bracket on top by using the extra spacers. I have never seen this before but....
These brackets are what holds the skid plates.

Ahhh. That makes sense. I remember those now that you mention them. Glad you got it figured out!
