Dang it, Did I buy the wrong sway bar end links?
I am replacing my 1.75 daystar front coil spacers with 2.5" Teraflex coil spacers and found out that I need longer sway bar ends. I found and ordered these from Quadratec:
Skyjacker Sway Bar End Links
For 07-08 Jeep® Wrangler & Wrangler Unlimited JK with 2.5"-3.5" Lift
http://www.quadratec.com/products/26028_101.htm
but today when I looked at my purchases from quadratec i see this:
26028 101 SKY REAR SWAY BAR LINKS 2-3.5IN JK SBE502
Are those ones going to be too long now???

Troyboy, the TF directions from the 2.5 lift say " move the rear factory sway bar end links to the front" and you use the new sway bar end links for the rear. Both of our Jeeps, RubyDoo and RubyJeep run without a rear sway bar due to the fact that we don't have the money for new wheels and tires and the ride has been fine.

Can't. The Daystar 1.75 BB moves the rear sway bar down an inch or so. In order to use the new link ends in the back I would have to move the rear sway bar back up which I don't want to do. I am happy with the setup in the back right now. I cancelled the order.

Can't tell from here...but, if you do NOT already hhave front disco's...this would be the perfect time toget a set of JKS QD's (Northridge, ~$130 delivered), the #2034 version for 2-6" of lift (Works w/o any lift too...).
That way - they are fully adjustable for length...in case you change your height AGAIN, etc....no need for new ones, just re-set the lengths....
And, they are super easy to connect/disconnect...the easiest to use out there, and, totally quiet, no rattle like the double disco's, etc...built really well (Life time).
So it takes care of the link problem...you can't guess wrong...they're adjustable....and, takes care of quickly and easily articulating the front end as needed for off road work....
Anyway - that's what I'd do....now.
