I just purchased a 2.5in rubicon express shocks and springs but it doesn't have sway bar end links. I was wondering if I need to get longer ones for the front and rear or if the stock ones will be fine at that hight.

Likely will need longer links. I have seen the rears moved to the front and longer purchased for rear.

Download an inclinometer app from your I or Android store. Place the phone on its edge on the flatest part of your sway bar aim for 0 to +18° however the sway bar angle should be set with coils removed at full collapsed articulation when you set your bump stops. This will provide correct setting and prevent sway bar flip.

Do not guess and move links front to back to save $$. Do it properly.

If you're going off road, you'll probably want quick disconnects so you don't have to unbolt them every time.

Any recommendations on ones for a 2.5 lift?
JKS's are pretty popular. You could go crazy and grab the Apex ones.

Bunch of different options, most around $150-200.

No personal experience since we have a Rubi.

I recently installed the Apex quick disconnect on my '22 Willys XR - they're very slick and easy to use. As long as you have the needed tools for installation, it shouldn't be more than 1-2 hour job.

Top notch customer support as well.
