4 link and anti sway bar

installing a triangulated four link, would a rear sway bar be beneficial?

Re: 4 link and anti sway bar

4 links benefit more then leafs when the sway bar is added. By design they are supposed to have more movement.

Even just a small 3/4" one will make the truck feel more road stable. How big you go is dependent on the total concept of your truck.

Depending on how much travel you need such as if you intend to lay out your truck. Longer away bar arms plus links maybe nessacary to accommodate the travel.

The tube sway bars they sell kits for are a great source of parts to do a custom set ups since the system is modular. You have a lot of widths to use, and different arms you can use. Plus some arms can be bent for needed further customization.

I already have a sway bar like the one above, i was gonna add it to leaf setup and then decided to go four link from welders series, pretty much street driven but would like a nice cornering ride...
