Sway bar drop brackets

My lift uses sway bar bracket spacers to keep the front sway bar at the factory geometry. However the rear does not heve these drop brackets or spacers, and is at a fairly steep ange (45*). Is this supposed to be this way, or should Install some drop brackets or spacers?

you need to add length to the links to correct the goemetry in the rear addin blocks will make it worse.

I'll check out the Thuren site. What are some reprocussions of this severe angle? Why would spacers make it worse?

It would be worse because the bar is under the axle,so blocks under the bar would lower it further.

I was talking about drop brackets for the top link brackets on the frame. Not the bar itself. I did not see the longer links on the Thuren site. Do you have a link.

I meant a link to the links. I went through his site again, and did not see any mention of sway bar end links. Could they be a custom item requiring a phone call?

I know how to get to his home page, and navigate the site. Once again: I went to the site. I looked at every page. I did not see any extended links on any of the pages. If anyone can give me a DIRECT link to the page on Thuren's site where you see the extended sway bar links advertised for sale, please post it.
