think i should install my stock front sway links in the rear?
I have my jeep leveled with the teraflex leveling kit. Think I should install my front links in the rear? I noticed some kits do that and some don't.
That would probably be a bad idea.. you might put the rear links in the front but I still think that with the leveling kit, you'd have a too much of an angle on the front swaybar. If you installed the front links on the rear, the rear swaybar would have a wicked angle going towards the ground. You wanna avoid having your swaybar angle towards the ground at all costs. I would try to stay between 0 and 5 degress positive. Certain lift kits will come with longer rear swaybar links and will utilize the stock rears on the front.

Thought the rear links were shorter than the front. Oops.
What is the reason for keeping the sway bars parallel to the ground? I purchased my JK with a 3" lift installed by the previous owner and stock links.
I have not noticed and quirks on or off road. Of course off road the links are disconnected.
Please clarify.
Thanks

Main issue is if the links are too short and you manage to get enough down travel without manually disconnecting them (auto will not help here) its possible for the bar to invert and bend them over the tie rod. It'll look like this when it happens
