HI!
Can anybody help to find part number of rear stabilizer bar link ?
I've got D2 with air suspension and 2" lift.
So I have to make original rear links longer.
D3 front stabilizer bar links are longer and they fit to my D2 without modification.
But I can't find suitable stabilizer bar links links fo my rear lifted air suspension.

Can you not put 2 inch spacers under the anti roll bar mount and use standard drop links

Thank you!
It's a fine idea.
Sorry, I didn't mention that I've got ACE.
Can I put spacers under anti roll bar with ACE ???
I found topic https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/rear-anti-roll-bar-bushes-on-a-2-lift.194594/ - but that stabilizer bar is solid, without ACE

You don't need to mofify any links for a 2" lift.
You just need extended brake hoses & to probably pull out some of the abs sensor cable to make sure they don't get stretched at full articulation / droop.
Because you've got ACE, there is minimal loading on the ARB links at full articulation because the ACE ram has disconnected each side from the other at low speed in low range

Original links are not long (or strong ?) enough(
When the axle goes down, it pulls ball joints out from the link.
There was video about adjustable links, but now I can't find that video and part number of suitable adjustable links

The original links are fine (Lemforder parts).
Maybe a problem with cheap aftermarket parts or do you have much more articulation than standard ??
I've been competing in off-road trials for over 4 years with a 2inch lifted (with OME dampers), ACE equipped, D2 without pulling any ball joints out & it's regularly at max articulation front & rear.

+ 1, standard drop links are both fine front and rear with 2" lift. Yes you can get 'adjustable' (certainly on the front, unsure on rear) you can disconnect the links to allow a little more articulation but arn't needed IMO.

Only fit Lemforder, Moog or Delphi drop links.

The rest are cheap ****e that pop and bang.
