Yeah TJ discos would work. I almost did the JKS ones...but the coin for 'em didn't meet my fancy.

Good on ya for fabbing your own up!! Need more fab-monkey's around here!!

Here's your pics here for easy viewing. Looks like the album link used the "Mobile Version" so I guess you are posting from phone? Getting to fuller images see the "View Full Website Link" will bring you to larger images and running mouse cursor over enlarges with a choice of "links" below. Click once on the one that says IMG Code, then CTRL-V for pasting here:

It appears you'll be bagging the bushings and links. What will be your method to hold up the sway bar?

the sway bar mounts in the factory location. I also used Factory Hardware. I also set it up to use factory bushings and washers. the bottom is just a 5 eighths heim joint. then the whole that it mounts to on the axle I jus drilled out to 5/8 and that is where I used a tractor hitch disconnect. I will try and post pictures later today of the whole thing installed on my 01 RAM

Years back I built custom ones with rod-ends and they worked fine. After doing some later suspension work I took the bar off for a while and never got around to putting it back on.
