I didn't have trouble with my swaybar links and leveling kit until I had the links replaced. After that, they started breaking, so then I had to put the spacer in to drop the bar down.

I have the 2 inch. No problems so far. I bought the brackets just in case I needed them. Now they sit on the shelf. My endlinks aren't perfect but they are holding up.

Mine need replacing just from being 15 years old lol. I thought about getting the ones from HBS. They look pretty heavy duty and like they'd last longer than anything you'd get from a parts store

That's what I'm waiting for to put my brackets on. When mine fail I'm going HBS and getting a steering stabilizer then too. Make it one job

leveling kit
i have an 01 ram 1500 5.9 2wd. I bought a 2" leveling kit from rough country and it looks so much better now. The leveling kit makes a big difference. I only have 245/75/16 on it but I'm getting 295/75/16. The leveling kit makes a big difference appearance wise. Defiantly get it!
