# Do I need to replace my sway bar end links after installing an Old Man Emu spring lift kit on my Jeep Wrangler?
## What length sway bar end link do I need for my Jeep?
Measure from mounting point to mounting point with the Jeep on the ground and the sway bar sitting level — that measurement is the end link length you need. Because every Jeep differs slightly due to weight distribution, an adjustable end link is the most reliable option.
## Which sway bar end link is recommended?
There are two options:
- **Adjustable end link (e.g., JKS4100):** Lets you fine-tune the length to keep the sway bar level for your specific setup.
- **Longer factory-style end link (e.g., BDS):** A fixed-length alternative once your required measurement is known.
## How do I measure for the correct end link length?
1. Place the Jeep on the ground with its full weight on the suspension.
2. Position the sway bar so it sits level.
3. Measure from mounting point to mounting point — that is the end link length you need.
