    How many here with 2-3" of lift have installed spacers to drop the sway bar closer to it's original position? Is it needed?

    Seems to me that adjustable end links would actually be the ideal solution.

    Front -- and I'm really asking about the Gen 2 & 3 trucks.

    However I guess the same question could be asked about the rear for those who have them. My understanding is that the rear TRD sway bar will accomodate up to 2" of lift.

    I have 2 inches of lift in the front and have no problems with the stock location of the front sway bar. That’s the way the stock TRD pro come anyways. As for the rear you could always rotate the mounts on the rear end 90*You are pretty much aiming for the sway bar to be level with the rest of the truck.

    I've seen the rear sway on 4+ inch lift w/o modification. I ran a front with more than 3" lift and stock hardware but I didn't like it. Camburg and/or Total Chaos make extended front links, pretty sure?

    Yes the rear will work with 2 inches of lift....no need to rotate the brackets. I have the Readylift 3/2 and it comes with the spaces for the front. I run the TRD on the front.

    Hey to rear ask this I was wondering this my self. Especially coming from Tacoma where it was needed. My thought that lifting the front end 3-4” the sway bar would not reach the lower control arm. To make it reach I figured you would need to collapse the front/ put under pressure
