Does anyone use these?I have a 6" lift and dont know if they will fit or not.

I have them and they're very nice. I actually bought them for my 03, but totaled it before the links went in. I installed them on the 06, but ran around a couple hundred miles with the stock links in and all my Thuren goodies. After 100 miles the stock links were already bent. I believe they will work all the way to 6" of lift. Might want to confirm.

You could probably use them with a 6" lift, maybe use a set of drop blocks on the sway bar in addition to the links? I have them on my truck after having bent the stockers after installing a KORE Recon suspension. Yes, I was using the drop blocks when the links bent. The Carli links are VASTLY superior to anything else I've seen.

Try them. If they're too short add the blocks and they should be fine. Make sure the sway bar ends don't point down after install. I'd be most comfortable if they had a slight angle upwards.

what do you mean about the angle?

Other than the stock ones bending what other advantages are there?

ptgarcia

If your links are too short and you don't lower the bar with blocks the sway bar ends (not end links) will angle down towards the ground. You don't want that. When everything is set up properly, the sway bar ends should angle upwards a little. You follow?

just change male heim to female and use all-thread. I used them on my 5 1/2" lift before I bought Thurens splined swaybar

Which is the better option when lifting the front 2"? Replace the sway bar end links, or use drop blocks? It seems like the ball joints on the end links are making a clunking noise now that I have it lifted

ptgarcia

End links. While using the drop blocks works, you still have to contend with the crappy factory links that bend when you look at them funny. The links Carli sells are far superior.

any difference between the thuren and lorenz end links?

ptgarcia

I think the only difference is the top mount. Thuren/Carli use a threaded stud with a nut on top. Looks like Lorenz uses a bolt. But I've never seen the Lorenz units in person.
