    I just bought my second 1st gen, a 03 access cab with 130,000 miles. The previous owner installed Bilstein 6112 coil overs in the front and Bilstein 5160 reservoirs in the rear. He also installed JBA upper control arms. One of the two things found during a mechanic inspection was that the sway bar end link was broken on the passenger side... no worries, easy fix. So I got the stock parts and put them on, but it was a bit of a wrestle to get them in place and they just don't look quite right. I think with the upgraded suspension I need to find some longer end links. does anyone know where I could find some that are reputable. This is my first vehicle with any modified suspension so I'm pretty new to it all. I'm here to learn all I can so if you have a link to a good thread about this (or anything suspension) I'd love to give it a read. Thanks in advance.

    Start by reading the "suspension wheels and tires" section of this thread: https://www.tundras.com/threads/so-you-wanna-buy-just-bought-a-1st-gen-tundra-eh.115928/

    It will get you up to speed on what you need to know for these trucks, and what you're missing. Buy the extended swaybar links mentioned there. And hell, read the rest of the 1st two replies also, since it covers what you may or may not already know about the best generation Tundra that ever existed.

    If you have a welder, you could always extend the swaybar links that you already have.
