SWAY BAR MOUNTS

How do I drop my front sway bar, is it just a matter of putting spacers between the body and the mount or is it more involved? I want to keep the standard links because shipping charges to the UK are usually more than the item costs

If you can't figure this out, are you sure you should be building drop brackets for it.... and why don't you just lengthen the swaybar links instead of dropping the swaybar?

How much lift have you added to your rig? If only a couple of inches, then you could fab up something like this to avoid shipping costs to the UK.

There is also the option, which I prefer, to extend the swaybar endlinks that attach to the axle, if you have a welder and some steel rod, or a long bolt that is the same diameter as the endlink and a larger washer that will support the rubber bushing. This mod has been done a dozen different ways, with similar results.

because the tops bend. I need new links anyway so I'll fab something up so I can lower the swaybar and move it forward slightly. Sarcasm Sucks.
