They look a lot like the old RE one which where a pain to hook back up.

You could make ones that worked just as good in about an hour with some scrap, stock links and a wleder…

It think JKS makes the nicest ones myself.

By nature of what a sway bar does you are going to need to have the Jeep on pretty level ground no matter what style of disconects you have.

Remember a sway bar is justa big torsion bar, or spring, set up to keep the body on your jeep from rolling side to side which means that if the Jeep is not level you once you get one side hooke dup you are trying to push against that spring to get the other side hooked up.  The JKS ones are pretty nice because you have a anchor pin with a chamfer on it that makes it easy to get started and whack on with a mallet if it's close but not perfect.

As much as I hate 'Big Dick's Suspension' I have to admit that those are pretty nice disconnects for the price, I like them better then the Rusty's or RE ones.

really dude? I think we got what a sway bar does.

what I was implying that there is a more play in those discos than you see on average, and they were a pain to hook up in my side lot which is almost level ground, but your vehicle weight might be favoring one side because of the high spots.

they also rubbed on my stock tracbar mount, so i ended up getting a hd.

so long story short. Personally I belive you would be happier with the bds ones. and I will be switching to those in the near future

If you understood how a sway bar works you would not expect to be able to connect it on anything but level ground so I figured maybe you could use some info on it.

But that is only really half of it; did it ever occur to you that responses on message boards are not just for you?  I tend to put lots of detail in my posts, often more then has to do with the origional question, because people who know less then you will read this thread looking for info and get their questions answered.  I mean I am pretty sure a lot of you know how to center your front end but I did a write up because there are people out there who don't know how yet…

You know in over 10 years of contributing to many different message boards for a variety of things this is the only one where I have been chastised for putting up to much info and recived as unhappily as I am here; Even TIJA was nicer to me then this and I was outright mean there!

FYI, if you are on level ground and it is hard to hook up your sway bar in my experiance you have a preload issue, an axle centering issue or an adjustment issue with the disconnects.  Also, sometimes hooking one side up and then cycling the suspension makes them line up properly.
