I didn't measure the distance without having to lift sway bar but that could be an option. I would guess that the end links would have to be about 14 to 15 inches in that case. The end result is that the existing end links are too short and I am not sure the expense of longer ones is worth it. I'm thinking it may be better to just get a steering stabilizer. I have read that getting the toe in adjusted so that it is greater helps the handling but I wonder about that increasing the tire wear. I haven't test drove the unit yet since the CHF so have no report on differences there. I'm waiting for a day when there are no high wind warnings and the temps are above freezing.

Many people, myself included, have done the front with no adverse effects. Remove the links, raise the swaybar and reattach, it’ll work just fine without extended links.
