Default Sway Bar

Howdy howdy.

So I went and did a little off roading today. nothing major at all. and sure enough, snapped my one sway bar right off. not sure how, but its gone.

On the plus side, I now get to get some nice sway bar disconnects.

I am currently running Pro comp MT 35" with RE 2" BB. Any suggestions on which sway bar discos to get? Tried searching and haven't found anything.

not 100% sure how. maybe hit a rock? i'll take some pics in the morn when its light out and possible come up with your own conclusion. yesterday i did overextend the front end causing the sway bars to invert. so possibly weakened it. i'm not overly concerned with it. just have to watch my corners now. i will be purchasing some sway bar discos though.

TFs are working great for me and provide a way to store the sway bar. Here's a write-up so you can see how that works:

The factory electric one works well as well and you do not have to go outside to disconnect.
