Default Antirock front sway

I'm looking into getting the currie anti rock front sway bar. I'd be putting this on my daily driver. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is there a lot of body roll? How is it on road?

At this moment I cant help with the front end question,, But I can tell you they make a huge difference. After completing my coil over suspension I didn't have any sway bars. Super scary at highway speeds, but kind of fun around slow corners ( it looked like a trophy truck taking a turn) I installed a currie at the rear and it stopped about 75% of the body roll!! The change in drivability was amazing! My jeep is currently at Rebel Off Road having the front end modified so they can install one in the front. It is my anticipation the new sway bar will completely solve the problem. I totally recommend the Antirock. If I can find this thread at the end of the week I'll let you know what the front end difference is.
PS... I realize I have compared them to no sway bar when you are replacing a stock one,, but thats all I got.

I have the front Currie Anti-rock. My Jeep is a daily driver. I didn't find it to be a whole lot different on the street, but I don't drive it like a sports car. My wife often drives the jeep and doesn't have any problems driving it.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions.

The rear anti rock is actually bigger than the stock sway bar. Imo i dont run either sway bar and dont think i ever will.

x2 - I didn't run my rear sway bar for well over a year and a half. Put it in for a week and took it back out. Lots of the time I don't run either sway bar and its my DD.

You just need to remember your driving a Jeep, not a Ferrari.

I'd look at a ORO swayloc for the front and a Currie 1" antirock for the rear ...that's what I'm using and it handles better than a stocker on the street and perfect crawling on the rocks.
