Front sway bar extensions
First I am really sorry if this was in the search cuz I looked and didn't see much(might have just been the lack of sleep)
So I put a 3" lift on my 90s jeep 4.0 and in the process broke both front sway bar links.
Anyone know if there is one I can pull off another vehicle/well the stock links be ok if I just pick up some new ones?(going to the bone yard tomorrow) I only need the links.
Looked in the sticky about boneyard parts and didn't see much ether
Thanks for the help

New links are $30 at Auto Zone I believe, however, the stock ones are far too short to accommodate for the lift. They were for my 4.5 inch, anyway. If you got a lift kit it should've come with new links. I initially confused them with the rear sway bar links
EDIT: ALSO; the new links come with fresh bushings. That's $30 for the pair.

Unfortunately I did a budget lift and totally forgot about front arms :/ so I have none to put on. Thinking I could pull some off the front/back of a doner and have that work. I don't really need quick discos or anything.

I would use it as a reason to buy some JKS Quicker Disconnects if you off road you can unhook the sway bars so it will flex when you need it and hook them back up and drive home.

You might be able to take your rear sway bar links and move them to the front. They're longer. Just a split second idea. Removing the rear sway bar won't noticeably alter on-road handling. You'll get more flex in the back though off road. Depending on the age you might have to get new bushings though.
