So to compliment my eibach kit I was going to add the following, i have everything else for the front.

Rear end links
Adjustable panhard bar
Carli drop bracket

I think that would be enough for me. I'm no offroader. It's more about everything being aligned right.
Rear end links- being as the eibach rear springs and shocks is a 1" lift am i looking for +1 extra length endlinks?
Budgets tight for these last few parts so looking at all options for panhard and links to save a few bucks. A supplier here in Canada would be nice as i've been screwed already this year alot on duties and ******** UPS handling fees.
Any suggestions welcome.

I see the freedom offroad bar looks reasonably priced

If you're using the Carli panhard drop bracket with a small lift there's no reason to also get an adjustable panhard bar, that would be purely a cosmetic purchase.

For the rear sway bar links you can use Teraflex 1754500 they're just about an inch longer than the stock links.

OK i did wonder that about the carli bracket.
Those teraflex 1754500 they'll fit with a 1 inch increase on the ram? they're listed for jeep with 3-4 inch lift

If i just add drop bracket and leave OEM track bar will i be able to get a good alignment and everything centered enough?

Any retailer for Carli here in Canada?

If it makes any difference I have the Eibach lift springs, stock-length Bilstein 5100's, Carli bracket, stock track bar and those Teraflex links on my 2015 RCSB 4wd 1500.

This isn't my photo but it's a photo from another person of the stock 1500 sway bar end link vs. the Teraflex link. Installation was as easy as it looks.

So i'm just waiting on last couple of bits to arrive.
Teraflex links on way and Carli Bracket too on way as well as the thuren rear suspension top nut fix

I may pull the trigger and get the sway bar too. Which version of the hellwig would i need for only 1 inch increase in the rear? thanks

Whichever hellwig is cheaper. They are identical and you’re planning to use the terraflex endlinks so it’s not going to make a difference

The sway bars aren't really related to lifting or not lifting, you can choose to get one if you think the truck leans too much for your taste or if you feel like you get too much head bob on uneven roads.

I kept the stock sway bar on mine. Coil suspension doesn't provide an inherent detent so it's worth having a sway bar just to discourage hysteresis when you cross uneven bumps but the stock one seems plenty for that purpose and I didn't want to limit flexibility off-pavement.

It was more about tightening things up a bit than the lift side of things, i don't offroad this truck. I'm always keen to improve on road manners
