Default RC quick discos

hey fellow jeepers. i have an OME 2inch lift with LD springs and stock bumpers at my 2dr JK. I had to move the sway bar all the way up to fit the quick discos even though i had adjusted them for the lower amount of lift possible. Is there a problem having the sway bar fully up? I hear a clicking noise coming from the front end now. is this normal?

I'm not familiar with the RC discos, but understand that having the sway bar level is quite important for handling. Not sure what would be clicking, though. What range of lift is the RC setup for?

Your sway bar is supposed to stay almost level... posting pics would help everyone diagnose what you got going on with the quick discos.

They work with 2.5" - 6" of suspension.

i have a 2.5 (measured OME lift), so i am in specs, the jeeps handling characteristics have not changed at all. But even though i have adjusted the quick discos for the lowest lift possible ( 2.5 inches according to specs) my sway bar needed to be on the top of its travel in order to install them.

A picture would really help here. I can't see why the sway bar would be at the limit of travel.

I would excuse him - he's writing from Greece, where they invented Windex. I wouldn't know how to say car or jeep in Greek. That would explain the time zone difference too, of why he isn't jumping to respond to us!
