    I had to take mine off after I put the 2" AAL on the rear.
    I could have made it work if I moved the brake line enough to rotate the mount bracket. Or make longer rods up to the frame mount.

    If you have lifted it a bit you might need some work to make it fit.

    You can get a brand new Addco sway bar for about $135 + shipping. And that one can be used with anything up to about 4" of lift. Saw it at SEMA

    I think Addco only makes for 1st gens at this point in time, Hellwig is the only company that has one for 2nd gen Tacomas.

    Go to the website and email them. When I was at SEMA i talked to the guy about it and got their brochure. It wasn't listed in the brochure cuz it was brand new. But I saw it installed on an "09 Access Cab with a 6" lift and it looked good. He said it would fit stock height and lifted trucks. I emailed him and he gave me prices. I gotta look for the email but I remember both front and back were less than $300.

    Not to sound like a jerk but what would you want a rear sway bar for? Does it help with towing or hauling?

    I don't even have my front one on. Not necessarily something I would recommend to the masses but it sure does flex better off road.
