And how much longer are they? I am experimenting with some aftermarket parts and need to raise the sway bar up.

cheapo way out... threaded rod and some washers, use this to get proper length then get bolts and spacers to match,actually some leave this setup in!

I ordered longer bolts from a fastener and bolt company. All thread will be my last resort. Energy Susspension does not make longer end links that I need. As a matter of fact ES does not make longer end links than what we already have. The longest end link they make is 4-1/2 inches and our trucks have 4-3/4 inch end links from the factory.

On my last K-1500 I had a Superlift that had you flip the sway-bar and re-use the stock end links. I broke about 5 or 6 of them before I built my own. I just copied the RCD/Fabtech 1/2 ton end links. I just cut some 1" aluminum round stock to length, put female threads in both ends, and used 3/8 bolts and all my left over bushings. Worked great, never failed.
