So I'm getting my "ducks in a row" and trying to get all my parts ready.

I ordered some parts from 4wheelParts.com, extended end links for the front sway bar, as well as, some new bushings for the sway bars both front and back. I asked for extended end links for the rear sway bar as well, and the guy told me I didn't need extended links for the rear. The rear is getting 5" blocks on it, how is this possible that going up 5" doesn't need extended links?

Can someone please help me with this? Is this true that the rear doesn't need the links, or another question, would i be ok with out the sway bar in the rear all together?

I do tow a travel trailer on occasion but otherwise this is just street driven truck and not really all that often to be honest. I maybe drive about 8-9k miles a year. Not even that realistically. However, it is my play vehicle, for trailer towing, camping, etc.

My second question is, I'm doing Super Duty springs on it along with the RSK. Are the bolts the same size for the F350 to the F350 SD? I was looking at picking these up from bronco graveyard: Front Springs Hardware Mounting Kit 80-97 but what about the rear springs? I'm not seeing anything that says rear specific for new bolts. I don't know of any tractor supply around my area (Elk Grove, CA) although I'm sure there are some. I'd like to do this stuff with all new bolts if I can.

Does anyone have any suggestions on this and info on the rear sway bar?

Thanks all I appreciate your help.

 

Nobody? Anybody please?

 

I responded to your PM but I figured I would answer here too for others

The front is going up about 3" over stock so you need the longer end links(use stock rear ones). The rear is only going up 1" over stock so the stock end links work fine.

As for the bolts, the spring eyes are metric and ford gets about $20 per bolt. I drill the eyes out the 3/4" and IIRC 9/16 then use grade 8 bolts for $2 each
