JKS Sway Bar Link Quick Disconnects Installation
I have the JKS Quick Disco's and all you need to do is make sure that the Jeep is on a flat horizontal surface.
You may want to get a rubber hammer that will make your life a bit easier though you can certainly do without it.
A quick note to all JKS users out there- Make sure that when you are Jeepin' disconnected - you need to securely tie the stabilizer bar so that it's parallel to the ground otherwise you risk puncturing your tires on a fully turned wheel.
I have a friend here that learned this the hard way.

not 100% sure what you mean by rounding the bolt?
did you damage the threads? if so a die might clean them up.
did you use the correct nut on the bolt?
If the stud is damaged beyond repair, call JKS and get a new one, i had to replace one that wiggled lose on me, didnt cost much to fix it up and they sent it FAST. In the interim i used a bolt with a sleeve over it.

hmmm...
could you get the edge of a die grinder in there to get some new "flats" on the bolt? You'd need to be careful but it may work.
me, i'd just break out the sawzall.
IF I remember correctly, that is a bolt with a ball connection on the end right? You are trying to get the nut off & the bolt head is rounded?
I would start with a good vise grip. If that doesn't work you might try a nut splitter, but I think these are grade 8 nuts, pretty hard stuff.
You can always JB Weld the vise grips to the bolt, but if you are at that point you have made a real commitment.

so how do these come off and pop on? is it a relatively fast and convienent process lol? Im guessing you pull the pins out and remove a piece of the disconnects and then just tie your sway bar to something so its not flopping around everywhere?
