Sway Bar Links

New forged links should be going live tonight, and emails will be sent out just prior to that. Orders from this week (12/22 - 12/27) should be shipped no later than 12/29. The shipping delay is due to being out of town for the holiday.

My new links are live on the site. Follow the link below, and get free shipping through the end of the year.

Here's the link(s).

 

Do you have pictures of this link connected / unconnected

 

The pictures in the post you quoted are of them un-installed, and I have some videos on my site where you can see them installed.

Do you have a link to the site

Are you the Mike who has made the disconnecting sway bar links for the 3rd gen Tacomas? I saw them in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5hNI2M_8mM
Is this a viable option or just flirting with disaster?

 

Are you still working on a sliding (or full) disconnect for 3rd gen Tacoma or is the forged link the best option with a 2-2.5in lift?

 

Bump @mstudt

 

I'm the same Mike. They work well, and only 1 failure in 4 years.

Mike

 

So I read the thread, and the endlinks for the 2001 Tacoma are longer than stock to accommodate a 2.5"-3" lift , correct? And you said the 2001 Tacoma doesn't need to have the nicer ball joints?

 

They're longer, and not sure where I posted you don't need nicer ball joints. The joint end is up to you, your preference, and what you want to spend. I will tell you that the forged joints are hands down my best seller.

Mike

 

Sorry I must have read it wrong. I just put an order for the forged ones.

 

Got it, and they will ship next week once my stock order comes in.

Mike

 

Can't wait! Thanks again.

 

Quick disconnects exist? I thought it wasn't possible for these trucks

 

same. I thought they didn't exist for the 2nd gen.
Someone above said they do for 3rd gen, and that video seems to be for FJ.
I wonder if those could be used on 2nd gen given they all probably have similar or identical suspension design

if they exist
hopefully they are easy to operate
given that the pin must be pulled out to unlock it for articulation, I hear putting that pin back in the hole again is hard to do. That the hole does not really become exposed unless the vehicle is on a lift. IDK if that means use hi lift jack on front bumper. Or if it could be done by parking on level ground (street) and if that would expose the hole or not.

 

They exist, but not in the form of a disconnect like you think.

Mike

 

I think the overlaying question is: Do disconnects exists for any IFS? I have yet to find any, on any vehicle.
