PSA: What part to order for 2 inch lift sway bar end links MY23+

[B34c0n]

This isn't a question but rather a PSA. If you have a mid year 23 or newer the sway bar end links side bolt is now a M14 rather than M12 like earlier gladiators.

The correct part to order for a 2 inch lift extension is 68640455AA. The parts person may tell you otherwise but so long as your bar side is an M14 this is the correct part. I was told that's on my a correct part if you're attaching a snow plow.

Anywho, here's a photo including the original and the smaller M12 68306981AB for length comparison.

The 24 Wranglers are the same way. You can buy any lift that fits 18-23 for MY24, you just have to use some bushings to make it fit.

Yup. Mid year 23 and newer have the larger diameter thread.

I wasn't too keen on cutting down a bushing and relying on washers to be the mating surface. There wasn't enough meat of the face from the nut and flange on the M12 link for me to be comfortable. Especially knowing that Mopar makes one of the right size.

Mopar doesn’t make one for a 3.5” lift, which was my scenario.

FYI the current Mopar 2" lift ships with both sizes of front swaybar links:
