I recently purchased a lifted (3" body, 3" suspension) 1987 D150 with a 318. I'm in the process of fixing it up and know very little about trucks. I work as an aircraft mechanic so have a decent mechanical understanding, but when it comes to trucks/cars I have zero experience beyond basic maintenance.

Right now I need sway bar endlinks, it looks like the previous owner, or whoever put the lift on, didn't bother getting longer endlinks. I need to find longer ones, but I don't really know what I'm looking for exactly or a good place to find them.

The ones that are "Guarunteed" to fit my truck on some websites, look nothing like what is installed. The lower connection is an eye bolt hole connection, versus what I keep finding, a straght bolt connection. So if you have any ideas of where to find an extended endlink set that works for my application and can tell me how long they should be, I would appreciate it.

Here is a pic of what's installed.

 

Do you think it's the angle that it is connected to the endlink? I know that Skyjacker offers a drop down bracket for the swaybar which may get the angle right for you. Here's a link.

D150 is 2wd, and w150 means 4wd, so if you were searching for 2wd parts, that would be problematic. I had to make new ones for my truck.
