Sway Bars

Ok, I have a 84 Toyota 4wd pickup with the EMU 2" lift leafs front and rear with Trail gears 5 1/2 shackles giving me a total 3 inch lift. I want to keep my sway bar setup. What do I need to mount up the sway bar with the lifted suspension? Is there an extension kit for the sway bar? Also, would I be able to mount and keep my front skid plate.

Well, got the kit today. The bolts are 10" long. Now, just to let you know that I don't have anything on the rolling frame, no engine, no cab, no bed, nothing. So it's kinda hard to figure out how far the frame will come down, but as it is now the distance i get from the end link the the axle mount is 10" so these might work after I put the engine and tranny in. I'm hoping the weather guy is right, tomorrow says 45* I might just try and get the engine and tranny put in the frame, curious to see how much the frame comes down. Brand new old man EMUs, with 2" lift and 1" in the new shackles

Ok, with the engine, tranny, and transfer case installed I put in the sway bar and this extension kit worked! I wish they would have put in some instructions, comes with 6 nuts! There's only 2 bolts, so what I did was I backed every nut up, twice

Skyjacker hardware kit SBE30 worked for me too!

After reading this thread, I decided to try the Skyjacker Extended Hardware kit SBE30 mentioned previously. Just did my front & rear leaf springs and shocks and gained probably 2 or 3 inches. SBE30 also worked perfect for my 1984 Toyota Pickup!
