Advice on a sway bar for a 1985 k10 with 2” lift
Addco or LMC?
Do I need any special mounting hardware since I have some lift? Anything I should know before installing?
Thnx

Most people here suggest removing the sway bar on a 4x4 and call it a day. But the LMC should be original equipment and will work. Nothing special needed unless you are 4" or higher in lift. That is when binding can be a problem.

Oop, sorry. I missed where it was a 4WD. But still, it depends on your purposes. On the street a swaybar is a good thing, but offroad not so much. Most offroaders use a detachable, since off road, articulation is king. But once you're back on the road a swaybar becomes a good thing again.

Yeah, I’m on the street which is why I’d like to have it. Thanks for the help!

Not sure if you had fixed your issues with this but ORD has a Disconnect kit to switch between on and off for on-road and off-road use. AFAIK you use your stock sway bar and attach it to the axle. But it does require a minimum of 2 IN of lift which you do have.
