Leveling kit/sway bar question

[CKUCF]

Hey guys, hoping someone with more suspension experience can help me out.
My truck has the Mopar 2” lift and JKS Quicker Disconnect sway bar links.
I plan to add a teraflex spacer to remove some of the extra rake created when I added a bumper and winch. Will this change my sway bar angle, necessitating new disconnects? Mine are for a lift from 0-2”... does adding an inch spacer make this a 3” lift, or does it not affect that linkage?

Also, still hoping the question above gets answered, but should I use the bump stop extensions if I only use the 1” spacer from the teraflex Kit?

Anyone?

Im no expert but ill add my $0.02

to start i have a 2.5in front/2in rear spacer kit

after install i noticed the steering was worse and the body roll was bothersome. I ended up going forward with a lot of geometry corrections. I installed an adjustable track bar to re center front axle, synergy brace to stabilize steering box, a set of resr sway bar end links on the front sway bar, a fox steering stabilizer, and MPP lower control arms to correct caster. Arter all that i got an allignment and im now pleased with the feel and handling again.

now to your question. If you’re adding a spacer to account for drop in the front created by extra weight you’re essentially just taking it back to a 2in lift. So the sway bar link you have should be just fine.the minor change in body roll should be negligible imo. But if you decide it’s annoying look at a different set and sell the jks ones on this forum to offset the expense.

this im not sure about. I guess its a matter of if your really going off roading or not. Im going the lazy route and will be adding some hockey pucks and poor man bump stop extensions.

I appreciate the input. I’m installing the spacer Friday and I’m tempted to just buy the 2.5-6” jks Disconnects to have on hand just in case. JKS requires cutting off a tab from the axle so I’m afraid I’m stuck with this design regardless.
