this is my opinion, bodylifts compounds the body roll affect.
focus on center of gravity stay low. Try to minimize the bodyroll before mounting a swaybar.
Great shocks helps also
Body lifts only lift a 400# body plus whatever.

Suspension lifts are the killer of any real handling on an EB.

Lifting all that sprung weight- engine 600# +, 6r trans 213lbs, Atlas 115#, 4 link, cage, etc, winch, HD bumpers, rock skis, etc.
minimize the susp lift as much as possible
everyone has a different tilt tolerance.

I’ve bent steel ones…. I know…. There’s a reason my avatar is a short bus.

Been running aluminum for years successfully, my buggy that only gets driven like there’s a drunk 2 year old behind the wheel, is going on 18 years with the same arms. Are they perfectly straigh? No. Have they been turned to push on them the other way? Most definitely 😂
