Hello everyone. In the next few week im planning on ordering a lift for the runner and I want to upgrade some things like ball joints, tie rods, sway bar links and so on. Does anyone know where I can find any good aftermarket swaybar links.
BTW, Moog, Beck Arnley, and Sankei are all made by the same manufacturer "555" in Japan, who happens to make the OEM parts also, so it really doesn't matter which brand you go with IMO. I could not tell a difference between any of my new parts and the OEM ones I replaced (I got a mix of all those brands). One thing I would do is spray them with some black Rustoleum before you install them, I didn't and most of my parts are starting to get rusty now. Yay.
I got mine from toyota offroad sway bar disconnects at wabfab.com They are not cheap and yes you could probably buy the pieces and make them. The fronts are the same price for the fixed or disconnectable one's. I got the disco's and notice a significant difference when off-roading. It takes 5 minutes to take them off and put them back on.
