Sway bar drop kit, or new sway bar end links?

Hey guys,

I haven't posted in quite a while. And to be honest, I haven't even touched my Yota in a long time either... BUT. She's getting some serious TLC right now!

Anyways, I'm doing upper balljoints, balljoint spacers, a mild body lift and likely all the other odds and ends that go with doing a ghetto-lift (diff-drop, rad relocation, etc etc)

Now, my question is... I understand that the sway bar may need to be dropped to allow for maximum droop after doing balljoint spacers. I really need to replace my sway bar ends anyways, so is it better just to get longer sway bar ends?



Also, while you're reading this. Moog greaseable upper balljoints, yay or nay? or should I do the Sankei ones?

If you get appropriate length longer end links, you should be fine. I would say 3/4-1" longer than stock- basically long enough that the ends of the sway bar are near the stock angle.
