suspension lift/swaybars
Hi guys Poopsie here,on my 2016 ls3 patrol ,due to the two inch lift the sway bars are lifted as well.Does this cause handling problems on highway or is it only a problem off road.Obviosly I can fit longer links if I should.
Thanks again for all previous replies.

Ideally the sway bars should sit flat to work perfectly in all situations

Yeah as above mate. The arms should be flat and horizontal so your linkages should be the right length to set them up flat. This allows full flex in both directions. I have found rhe factory linkages to be pretty average and I have broken more than my fair share.
Superior Engineering make a Superflex arm which has longer arms that seem to work great and a good option for the front of a Patrol.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

I've been suggested upgrading this magic superior sway setup several times.
Most notably when I fitted up the superior Panhard rod.
Is this what I'm looking at ? And is this mostly self plug and play, bolt off bolt on kind of install ?

Yes mate. those chassis plates bolt onto the side of the chassis using existing factory captured nuts. I bought a front one off Nicco when he stripped his GU and fitted it to Rufus. I didnt get to use it in anger but the quality was great and the extended arms make a lot of sense. @matfew now owns Rufus and may comment. Good kit i reckon.. If i was ever going to put sway bars back on the GQ t would be those.
