pick up a set of off road evolution rock stars. they relocate your mount a bit higher up and act as a skid after the fact

I have a chip or a v shaped notch that was taken out on one side. I ordered the EVO Rock Stars.

Excellent! That's even easier. We'll see how they look after my next trip to RC. I'm getting better at going ON rocks as opposed to around them and bashing things up. Thanks!

These look pretty nice. I was checking out the website and they have the following warning: "This kit may require new (shorter) rear swaybar endlinks and/or coil spring retainers."

Is that an actual concern for a stock rubi? I'm hoping it's as simple as WOL says.
