Anyone if these work well without a lift? I was about to install mine and then read they might not be ok without a lift. I can't be the only non-lifted JK out there trying to run these. I know it says it's ok for 0-3 inches of lift but it seems like a large range.

I am currently running stock right now, and I made my own disconnects that work just the same. You obvisouly won't get the clearence you would with a lift. But it does help your articulation when off-roading, I had already thried them out and it worked great! But I had to tie them to the frame so that it won't be in the way, so I wanna make that bracket to attach them for now.

I'm aware of how they work. I'm just worried about the length of the links. The position of the sway bar won't be level on flat ground. Thinking this could cause some poor handling while on the road. Anyone running the 0-3in disconnects on stock suspension????

I know what you mean, I have mine in a box still because I thought the same thing, I got the 0-3" ones and they are twice as long as the stock links. Haven't put them on yet either... hope someone has and chimes in!

I went ahead and installed them on my jeep. Doesn't put the sway bar too far out if line. So far I haven't noticed any problems driving around town. I did have one of the zerks break off while putting in the grease. Have yet to try replacing it. Must be common since the package included 4 spares. :/

I disconnected mine on Monday for some 4wheeling and discovered the rubber bushing on one of the links is cracked. Only been running them for about 2k so I hope Teraflex stands up to their legendary customer service (which is why I bought their product) and they get a replacement to me once I can call them. Hope it was just a rare defect.

Has anyone had an issues with the pins during winter driving with road salt? The only think holding me back from buying is the "corrosion" worry
