Curious About Disconnecting Sway Bars? Watch This!

By -

If you’re on the hunt for the biggest suspension travel and body articulation, watch this! Because you might need to learn a thing or two about disconnecting sway bars.

Some folks would argue that modern technology in off-road vehicles has created a new generation of lazy and inadequate enthusiasts. The fact that some Jeep models use clever technology to pull off moves that our ancestors had to do the hard way, seems to piss a lot of people off. Whether factory or aftermarket, we don’t see what the big deal is with using technology for your own advantage.

Sway Bars

One of these awesome features is disconnecting sway bars. While Jeepers have been able to unlink sway bars on the go for decades, new technology allows drivers to disconnect with a simple push of a button. That’s right, one no longer has to bust out the toolbox and get down and dirty on the trail. Some call it laziness, we call it awesomeness.

The good folks of Engineering Explained have put together another incredible video, this time highlighting the mechanism behind electronically disconnecting sway bars. Besides their trusty — and now iconic — whiteboard, they also use some footage from the Ram Power Wagon media drive a few months back. This video paired with EE‘s in-depth teachings gives us an incredible insight at how this clever technology works.

Enjoy!
