Sway bar drop bracket for 19+?

I finally pulled the trigger on the lift for my truck. Based on availability and what manufacturers offer for the 3500 dually, I ended up ordering my own kit a la carte with a combination of manufacturers. I've ran into a road block though - I cant seem to find sway bar drop brackets that can be purchased separate from a kit for the 2019+ HDs.

The only vendor I've found who sells them separate is Carli.... I am having a little bit of a hard time stomaching the $125+ for two metal spacers (especially when I've found PLENTY of options for the pre 2012 rams around $50/ea.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction on where I might be able to order these as individual parts? I wonder if I call someone like BDS or readylift if they would sell the parts separately. It doesnt appear that you can order them loose on their website (that, or I cant find them in the parts menus).

And for those who were curious about my piecemeal kit:
-Carli 3" coils
-Carli radius arm drop brackets
-Thuren tuned Fox IFP shocks
-Rough Country Track Bar
-1.5" rear universal blocks & replacement u-bolts (RC u bolts, pro comp blocks was the best combo/option at the time)
-BDS bump stops for correct lift height
-Still trying to find sway bar brackets

For what its worth, I'm coming in about $400-$500 cheaper (pending the brackets and bump stops) than buying a packaged kit containing similar components and I (hopefully) shouldn't be on a 6 week backorder (current wait time for the Commuter kit).

If it were me, and I know you’re not, I would leave the sway bar, I doubt the drop brackets are going to make much of a difference.
 
I did the same front coils. didn't need anything but the trac bar, which i also have.
 
Another option is extended track bar end links from bds.

I like to spend money on things that matter and/or yield some level of return. $900 for coils and radius arm drops that will provide a stellar ride quality and keep my geometry the same? sure. A $150 chunk of metal to mildly improve body roll in extreme driving situations on a tow pig that drives straight and on cruise control 90% of the time? no thanks, I'de much rather find an alternative at 30% of the cost.

I get your point though. You're right, it is pennies in the big picture. Still not my style.
 
Any fab shop could cut and bend some up for you for less than 50$ for sure then just gotta toss some paint on em

I have a set, $50 if your interested. I bought them, used them for a month and then bought the Carli sway bar. Message me if you still want them.

Hey Tom, shot you a message with my phone number. I'll gladly take them for $50. Thanks!
