@Modded did the RK2007 make any difference in handling, due to the shorter endlinks? It is said to realign the axle center.....right?

Wondering that too because I've heard that without the shorter end links the sway bar is rendered useless but I looked and looked at it and I felt like no matter what angle the bar was at it would still function..?

Blazed... Yes, that was what I was thinking too. As I understand the concept of sway bars....one end works against the other in bending opposite directions....at ANY angle that would hold true...Right?

It may look better when the sway bar isnt visible from the rear of the car once you install the shorter end links thats the only perk i can think of

The sway bar relocators made a little to minimal effect in the handling. But like you guys said, it pulled the sway bar back up from being visible from the rear.
I also have a custom adjustable panhard bar which mad corner handling better due to its strength.
Worst part is I had to mod the end links just to fit. Good ol DJM lack of QC right there...

Thanks Modded. You have been there done that......all.
Yeah from mid 09 to mid 2011 I did a whole bunch of random suspension setups. It was hell figuring out what to keep but I finally got it down to the perfect setup! If Pedders had 5" rear coils, without a doubt, I would have went with them. The Belltech paired with Bilstein 5100 shocks is good ride though.
