    If you go with a +2" shock. No.
    If you go a +3 or more then yes.

    I like this idea of the extenderd because my last 4wd drive i snapped the sway bar link was a bit of a dog on the road but the flex was improved. Will see if i can dig up an old photo.

    There are 2 options you can go.
    You can extend the factory disconnect or replace them with something superiors extended manual disconnects.
    Either way you get the best of both worlds

    Why is that? How often do you tow your camper?
    Wouldn't you rather the car sitting straight when you're not towing (probably 90% of the time) compared to the odd time when you will tow?

    To me suspension is a personal choice , what one person thinks is best for a given task , may not suit everybody , I tow most weekends and heavy at that , personally I don't like airbags or spacers , so for me the hardest springs I could get ( kings for me ) , which by the way aren't as harsh as people think , but my family's safety when loaded is paramount ! By the same token most of my 4wding is beach , or dirt roads ,
    We all have different needs , which means many different set ups
    If ya not using it buy a prius .....

    True. That's what makes it difficult, we are spoiled for choice.
