Default sway disconnect choice

I'm getting into an AEV 3.5" premium on an 09 unlimited sahara, with ORE axle C's and 35s and I have to pick a sway disconnect. I'm leaning towards the Teraflex because it seems pretty simple, but they have 2 sizes to choose from, 0-3" and 4-6" so which is the right one for the AEV 3.5"?
All opinions welcome, thanks.

The AEV lifts generally run a little tall, so I bet if you called T Flex they woudl tell you to go with the 4-6. T flex is on here, so you could pm them

Give JKS a look. Instead of undoing one side and worrying about securing it, the JKS ones disconnect on both ends, so you can take the whole disconnect off. Plus, they work for a larger variety of lift heights (2"-6"), I believe.

x2 on the JKS. They are adjustable and greasable. Easy off and easy on.

The Teraflex have a "park" position for the links so they stay up and out of the way. Seems easier than removing the whole link and storing somewhere...
