Default Source for Longer Sway Bar End Links?

Ok, I have a 2008 4x4, 4.7 with 2.5" spacers and 285/70r17 Duratrax tires. I have been running this setup for ~75,000 miles and overall I am happy with it, but I do have a small problem. I need my swaybar end links to be about an inch longer. I am going through them about every 15k miles, and it is annoying.
So, are there parts sourced from other vehicles that will work? I have considered cutting/welding, but before I do that I wanted to make sure I am not missing something obvious...

If you're using OEM end links, then that's your problem.

There are no available longer bolt on end links. Cutting and welding in a small extension piece may be the only solution.

Take your sway bar off = problem solved. Ive had mine off for over 100k.
