After reading different threads, its mentioned that shorter rear sway links might be needed.
can someone shed some light on the theory of this, I can't make sense if it......thinking swaybar will top out? ?? Thanks

You cut off the factory lower sway bar link mount tab, and the Rockstar skids have a new sway bar link lower mount on them that is about 1" higher up, which may make your current links too long, potentially causing the sway bar to come up high enough to contact the brake lines on the frame rail.

Thanks.....didn't know that part, just thinking that shorter links will limit droop and the rockstars are for enhancing clearance and travel.... We will see, I have 2" lift w stock links.....
