Rear Sway Bars

I Just Put On A Six Inch Skyjacker Lift And The Rear Sway Bar Connectors Won't Fit Anymore. What Are The Results Gonna Be If I Run With Out The Sway Bars Connected Until I Get The New Longer Sway Bar Connectors?

What are you driving there boss? A half ton might react a little differently than a 3/4 ton. Did you use an all leaf kit, or do you have blocks?
Any reason you feel that you need a rear sway bar anyway? Try driving it with the thing disconnected. bet you dont even need it.
Unless you have an excessive load, like a fully self contained camper or something, I bet you dont need it. Since you have lifted the truck 6 inches, I am meaning towards the fact that you dont have a full camper or anything like that.

Little more info will help.

Sorry About That. It's An 1989 F250 That I'm Swapping In Axles From An 88 F350 Diesel. The Front Is The Lifted F350 Springs The Rear Is Lift Blocks. I Don't Haul More Than 1000 Lbs Every Once In A While. Both Axles Came With Sway Bars I Guess Due To The Fact They Came Out Of A Diesel. None Of My Other Trucks Have Had Sway Bars So I'm Not Real Familiar With Them.

I have a 94 F250 with 4" lift and a 97 F250 with leveling kit and have no sway bars in either truck, they are both diesel trucks. Like I just put in another post I don't know why F350s came with sway bars and F250s didn't
