question for all "flex" folks. I just put a 2.5" Skyjacker lift on a 4 Door sahara. 1) should i add the sway bar disconnects if i only plan to do light 4 wheeling and definately not rock climbing? 2) what about longer brake lines, when are they needed?

word
 

in a TJ, removing the sway bar not only improves flex, but makes off road travel 50% less bone jarring...

I say spend the $ and get a good JKS one...

I'm more familiar w/the TJ, but I imagine that your flex will be limited by the shocks / binding before your brake lines are in danger... but if u have access to an off road location or a RTI ramp you can check.

Drive up on it, and at full flex see if the brake lines are pulled tight... or if they have slack left.

i personally won't ever buy quick discos for sway bar link disco cause it takes a wrench, a wratchet, 2 zipties, and 30 seconds to disconnect them the way they are... and oh yeah if you're gonna wheel... .disconnect them and be ready to be amazed by the flex (take a camera)

I agree that it's easy to disco manually without QDs (I did a write-up on it here). But there ain't nothin' wrong with making an easy task easier. :yup: I have to admit, I almost get giddy everytime I disconnect and reconnect my Teraflex quick discos... disconnecting manually does not take 30 seconds-- it's quick, but it's several minutes for sure and reconnecting usually takes longer. With the Tera QDs it really is 30 seconds, so I'm happy with them. :D

I've done several comparisons with the Edisco and there is an amazing difference. When it's disconnected it's like riding on a cloud as opposed to a super bumpy experience....night and day. Flex is cool too.
