Rough Country Front Sway Bar Links | (fits) 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ | 4" of Lift | 7593, Black

I needed slightly longer links for my 2.5 inch lift so I ordered these. The included hardware is terribly designed. The factory sway bar hole is tapered, so forcing the straight collar onto the tapered hole would be a bad idea and would likely cause loosening problems over time. I reused my factory tapered upper mounting bolts, which worked perfect. The original factory links are bent (curved) slightly to clear the steering tie rod, but these are straight. At full suspension droop (on car lift) the right link lightly contacted the tie rod at full steering lock. I added a slight bend with my hydraulic press to prevent this. The links worked great using the factory hardware and after bending slightly.The link measures 10 inches long - center eye to center eye. The original factory parte measures 8 inches. So the length is perfect for a 2-3 inch lift.

Some dummy put the product size as 13 x 4.25 x 2.5 inches, well that's the BOX size that they come in. I have a YJ 2.5" lift (i think, i didn't put it in) my sway bar link is 12 1/2" long. figured another half inch longer would work (was wondering about the rest of the measurements) come to find its about 7/8" shorter than mine. Welp it'll probably work just fine anyway. MADE IN USA!

These sway bar links came with two metric bolts and nuts and four steel bushing inserts sized to fit the metric bolts. Since my old bolts were SAE and wouldn't fit the bushing inserts, I had to run around town looking for two more metric bolts to do the installation. Why cheap out on the hardware? I would have happily paid a few dollars extra to avoid the inconvenience.

Would have given five stars but they arrived dinged up and had to be painted. Looks good and now I'm aligned.
