If you have lowered your truck and not modified your sway bar end links you have also lowered the performance of your sway bars. Just crawl under your truck and see how far off of parralel the sway bar is.
For lowered suspensions, the sway bar end links need to be shortened by the amount of the drop. If not, the sway bars will no longer be parallel to the ground, thus reducing the bars effectiveness.
Here is a pic comparing the original (the long one) rear sway bar end link with the modified one (the short one). In my case I have lowered my truck 3" in the rear so I shortened the end links 3". The fronts are the same and will require to be shortened the amount of your front drop.
Do this mod and I am sure you will be able to tell the difference.
