For the people with a lifted truck, specifically 4'', did you put aftermarket sway bar end links as well? I have a rear sway bar and noticed the links are angled now since the lift. does it make a difference?

Yes you need longer end links.

The rear was lifted 4" over stock??

In any case, it is up to you. As-is, the angled sway bar arms will actually increase lateral stability, better offsetting the naturally-increased rollng tendency of the higher center of gravity.

Adding longer links will reduce roll stiffness, but make the ride slighlty more supple when one side of the vehicle goes over larger bumps.

Honestly, if you don't do much off-road driving, I'd leave em.

FWIW, I offroad pretty regularly and have no anti-sway bars at all. However, I might reinstall the front when towing after I lift the truck.
