I'm going to have to wait until the end of January before I can get these and then get them on my truck. How is driving in the snow with these? I've read one review that's said it wants to slide a bit on wet roads probably due to not transferring weight anymore. Looking for some more feedback from those that have them on now that winters here.

Haven't had any significant snow yet. As soon as it eventually starts flying I'll let you know what I experienced.
Anyone else driven on snow yet? I'm interested to hear now too.

Had my rear bar on for icy, light and deep snow across flatland and 10,000'+ mountain roads last year and didn't notice any negative effects.
Only downside to me of the rear bar is the suspension won't flex as much as stock if one's into that sort of thing. Since mine's pretty much a pavement and gravel machine, flex isn't a concern.
You can pry the rear bar from my cold dead hands.

1st BMWBig6, that was definitely the best review I have ever read on any forum.
I am about to purchase both front and rear sway bars. 3 questions.
1: Will the rear bars work with a rear 2" drop shackle?
2: Any tips on equipment or supplies for installing myself?
3: What are the differences between the S or L versions?
Thanks

I think this other thread may help you.
I've not seen S and L versions (at least not for my application), so I can't say for sure.
