Aftermarket rears dish out a few problems that need to be dealt with in order to install the rear sway bar. The first problem is they use a larger o.d. axle tube compared to the OEM rear, thus the stock u-bolts and saddles won't work. The second is that the torque arm mounting pad hangs much lower than on the stock rear, and the sway bar hits it, preventing installation onto the axle tubes.

What this kit provides:
What this kit does is space the sway bar below the torque arm mounting pad. It includes the proper diameter u-bolts and saddles, and their heavy duty construction matches the abuse they will take on your new heavy-duty rear. The supplied longer length end link sleeves, bolts, and hardware provide for proper geometry to be maintained at the sway bar's new mounting location.
Due to the larger diameter u-bolts required for the sway bar installation, your stock sway bar bushings can not be used. You will need to use polyurethane bushings that have the large, slotted, universal mounting holes. Prothane polyurethane sway bar bushings do the trick. Use of polyurethane end links will also make the installation of the longer end link sleeves a snap. If you do not already have polyurethane sway bar bushings and end links, you can add them right onto your order below.
The kit is available in bare steel ready for you to paint, or you can get it with a durable, brilliant, powder coated finish to make things look really trick! Entire kit is a complete bolt-in installation, no welding required!
