Factory sway bars work fine on static lowered trucks. Here is a quick pic of my current truck lowered 5" in the front. Clears by a mile.

Notice that I did use the mount brackets for lowered trucks to tuck it up a little higher. No big deal, they are between 20 and 25 dollars from Early Classic or CPP.

Used factory sway bar (repainted), some new bushings, and the mount brackets were about 50 bucks total all-in for the project.
