so your saying replacing my shocks with a softer coil won't do anything? a friend of mine rode in my jeep and said it felt like I had stiff coils.

If your coils are made for your JK replacing them shouldn't give more flex just change your height or ride depending on what you get. If your coils are too stiff bumps feel choppy. That also could be caused by running high air pressure in your tires.

I was just trying to find out from another person, to confirm its correct. i haven't yet, i have seen so many bigger JK's running these sway bars, why would it be limiting my flex if it isn't limiting there's?

The purpose of the Anti-Rock is you don't have to disconnect. Look at Currie's description:

For all models of the '07 and up Jeep JK Wranglers - 2 or 4 door. The Currie Antirock® sway bar kit provides balanced performance of front and rear suspension for rugged off-road conditions. It gives the driver increased traction by balancing and distributing the weight and traction over all four tires. The Antirock® off road sway bar is designed to directly replace the stock Jeep sway bar. This bar is made of SAE 4130 heat treated steel for ultimate strength, which is the same quality used in professional off-road competition sway bars. This kit includes all components for installation including, the sway bar, bolt-on billet aluminum frame brackets which feature the RJ logo milled into the sides of them and semi-gloss black powder coat finish, delron bushings, billet aluminum arms that are bent to spec., adjustable length heim jointed sway bar links, necessary hardware, and step-by-step instructions. Unit bolts into existing holes in the bottom of the frame rail and attaches to the stock mounts on the vehicle's axle housing. The Currie Antirock® sway bar does not need to be disconnected for off-road use. CAUTION: Jeeps will have more body roll than stock. This sway bar may be used on the street, however, it will not provide the same handling characteristics as the stock setup.
I would figure your springs or shocks would be your limiting factor. You may want to flex out your Jeep and see if something is getting in the way the Anti-Rock fully extending.
