@ NorCalSS its not lowered at all but it's horrible when I hit a bump at highway speeds feels like the rear wants to fish tail.

invest in the djm bar along with the spohn rear kit. Im wondreing if your stock rubber bushings are toast which doesnt help at all.

Im interested in doing this as im trying to finally dial my suspension in... so how many of what size bolts do I need here? Is it just the 4 bolts or is that for each side? Would like to just make a quick trip to lowes after work and get rid of the slop

If I understand correctly you are selling the larger bolt kit for the sway bar. Let me know how much bro. Thanks!

Tony,

These are the bolts that come with the kit, or these are the bolts that I should go out and get in grade-8?

If you could just make and post a quick list of bolts (diameter, length, etc.) -- how many of them, and where they go -- that I should go out and get in grade-8, that'd be great.

From your post above, it sounds like that's what DJM includes, but that you recommend UPGRADING to something different.

Maybe that list above IS the list of bolts you recommend, just in grade-8 grade...?

Thanks.

I think it's 2 1/2x2 3/4 for the top sway bar end link. one each side. Mine had a 1/2 on the bottom already.
And 4 9 1/6 x4 1/2 for the lower trailing arm.
I only did the one on each lower trailing arm since i only bought 2. Need to buy 2 more.
