Cut first link before bend and the second after the bend and matched them up. It adds about 1 1/2 inches to total length.

Thought they might work better if they were straight so I made a jig to align them and put them in a vise.

Here is how they came out. I used a 4 1/2 inch long 1/2 inch grade 5 bolt as my pin. Cut off before the threads and drill a hole through it. Over all added extension around is 3 1/2 inches which is perfect for my lift. Adjustments can be made by adding washers to the bolt that mounts bracket to the sway bar.

I used a 2 inch, 3/16 inch thick square tubing. I cut one side off and rounded it. It fits the link pretty good and provides a good shoulder for the pin to rest on.
