Rear swaybar drop bracket?

With my abundance of rear lift, my rear swaybar is at a really bad angle.

Does anyone know if the FJZ80 swaybar extention brackets would fit my 4runner?

Looks like you could fab one up pretty easily, but, I do not have access to a welder.

Anyone have any suggestions?

you can always take your measurements, draw it out and take it to a local welder. It shouldn't be too mucn $$$ especially if you take some measurements.....

No, I don't tow.

And I dont know what drugs I was taking at the time, but, I am in a welding class and I can weld whatever I want. Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

I think IM going to cut some square tubing, drill holes on either side and then weld a bolt into one of them, tighten that bolt up to the existing mount, and then attach the lower hole with the swaybar.

Longer sway bar end links are one option. Make them disconnectable and you have the best of both worlds:

Just making a set of 3rd gen rear disconnects that are longer than stock.
