Minus the lockers. There is something to be said about being able to disconnect with the touch of a button instead of having to get out of your jeep in the rain, sleet, snow or hail to manually disconnect your sway bars. Oh yeah, did I mention the rubicon has lockers! Wish I went with a rubicon.

Dude, if you have put yourself in a situation where you need to disconnect your sway bar in a hail storm, you are one seriously manly wheeler! Props.

I hear those auto disconnects are very prone to breakage...
Either way, takes me about 2 minutes to disco my sway bar, and it didn't cost me an extra thousand bucks :P
