    Bad sway bar links on my 2015 TRD Sport. Mevotech makes a TTX line that looks pretty stout. Not sure how much it really matters though. Maybe any new link would be good enough although I do sometimes forget that I'm in a truck and I drive as if I was in my old Datsun 510.

    Daily driver, I don’t think it matters. I went with beefy adjustable because I am turning the truck into an off road toy. I got another vehicle for daily. A lot of off-roaders will tell you to just get rid of the sway bar.

    It's a 2 wheel drive. Doesn't go off road.

    No need for beefy. Just get some moog of Amazon.

    I ordered the TTX line because they are greasable and do not use the allen head-inside-bolt method of install and removal like the stock ones. When I went to remove my a while ago the hole for the allen was extremely corroded and removing them became a PITA.

    Yeah, no. The quality of Moog has gone down hill after they got bought off by another company. They are not the same Moog as back in the old days, and some of them even have fitment issues that are missed at Q&A.

    Agreed. Learned the hard way.
