Finally started putting my front sway bar on and naturally, the endlinks were too long. I can just go buy a shorter grade 8 bolt and make it myself. Who would have such in stock??

You only need shorter one if you are lowered 1.5 or more right? I'm pretty sure my steeda springs didn't drop me 1.5'' but it would suck to get started only to have to stop and find a smaller bolts.

2" springs and the QA1 kmember dropped it at least .75"

the stock ones will bolt up no matter the drop, but the sway bar will no longer sit at the correct angle (level to the ti-rods + control arms) so you will get bump steer without the shorter endlinks.

So I might as well order the shorter end links? I run Steeda Superlite springs with prothane ISO's,drops about 1-1/8" to 1-3/8"

WOW!! Talk about a great mod!! Poly endlinks and poly sway bar bushings dramatically tightened up handling.

does your swaybar sit level?
Haven't tried to install it yet, been raining the past couple of days. I just don't want to get started and then have to put the stock stuff back in. I try to have everything ready before I get to it. Guess I'll just "bite the bullet" and see what I get before ordering anything else.
