Before i order new endlinks, do i need them? I'm raising the front with 4 inch i beam between the frame and crossmember. The endlink center section will be about 7 inches. The factory ones are 3 inches. Im not a suspension guy by any means. Would 7 inch endlinks even serve a purpose being raised that high? With being an independent front suspension, everything is in factory position except for the sway bar and draglink. I was surprised that the draglink has very little down slope with 4 inches of lift.

My thinking is, you need the sway bar more now than ever. I'd connect it...

.

You are right. Just finished her up and took her down the road. Steered perfect, actually took all the play out but swayed like a 81 chevy malibu.
