    Just fought like heck to get new front suspension installed, and now sway bar links don’t reach. Will I need to get new sway bar links? Or did I fuck something else up along the way…?

    I figure once the suspension isn’t at full droop the sway bar link will align again? I jacked up the lca to about ride hight and it seemed like it would line up ok.

    oe springs should reach plenty fine. perhaps you got some knockoff's that aren't up to toyota standards.

    Just shooting in the dark and didn't go into the 28° garage to look at mine, is it possible you have the sway bar mounted upside down? Easy to do, don't ask how I know.

    May be! I got it all put back together just now and everything seems to be alright. I did take the sway bar off the other week to do new sway bar/rack bushings though. So its totally possible I put it in upside down lol
