Hey!!!

I am thinking about getting some swaybar disconnects for my 2010 jeep sahara lifted 2.5 inchs with 33" nitto trail grappler tires.

there are a few I was looking at let me know if you have any suggestions or opinions on these products.

JKS Jeep JK Quicker Disconnects
TeraFlex JK Wrangler 0-3in Front Swaybar Disconnects

 

Are you going to be running stock wheels? If so some people report problems w/ the teraflex disco's rubbing. Both JKS and teraflex have good reviews on here. I personally like the teraflex design more because the swaybar attaches out of the way on the frame when not in use, whereas you should tie up the loose swaybar after you disconnect the JKS discos.

Another one to consider is the NEW STYLE rough country disco's. I have them and love them... they have a similar design to the teraflex (they attach the loose swaybar to the frame when not in use), however I don't think they work w/o a lift of some sort either.

 

I have been using the JKS for the last 3 years and i love them ,easy to use and i like that they are adjustable from 0 to 6 inches of lift so you can keep them as your Jeep evolves.

 

Yeah i have Aftermarket wheels 17x9 XD addicts -12 mm offset so i should be find with the disconnects so the JKS ones dont connect back to the fram you have to tie them up some way then?... hmmm i dont know if i am a big fan of that If i have to figure out how to tie them everytime i go offroad or worry about them dropping back down and causing problems.

 

Hmmm... It's ahrd to decide between the adjsutability of the JKS, or the tieing ability of the Teraflex...

I don't mean to hijacjk, but what do you do about the rear swaybar links? I'v still got all stock links after my lift and am wondering if I need to replace the rear links as well. I hate to spend the money on quick disconnect links for the rear if I will never disconnect them.

 

there is no reason to be disconnecting your rear links. the rear away is very light and flexes well with the fronts disconnected. disconnecting the rear will only give you a very unstable ride and probably quite a few moments of incredibly high pucker levels. the only time you should address your rear links is when lifting your jeep, as they should be extended appropriately. no quick disco's are necessary tho

 

Where would I find longer links though? The only ones I'v found are adjustable JKS links, which I don't want to spend $140 on for the rears.

 

You can order some longer rear links from TF. They are basically just the front links but use the original hardware to install them in the rear.

As far as the OP question I had the TF QD's and they worked fine. I switched to the TF S/T sway bar because I got tired of having to connect the links back when they were muddy. Now all I have to do is turn a knob and I am good to go.

 

I use the TF disconnects and they work well and hold your swaybar up out of the way. I have had some minor rubbing at full flex using TF leveling kit and stock 18' rims/tires I dont think you would have a problem if you had less backspasing and/or wheel spacers. They are easy to connect and disconnect.

 

The JKS disco's have 2 pins on each. You Remove them completely and store inside somewhere.
(some don't like to store inside, and prefer the swing up method...)


The TF disco's have 1 pin on the bottom. You disconnect, swing it up, and reconnect to the frame.
(the problem with them is that they are positioned to where the tires can and will contact them when flexed/turned, ripping out the pins on the trail. Search any of the 'other' disconnect threads for more info on it, but people say they carry lots of spare pins when they go out...)


Pretty much any vendor can get you longer rear links. They are cheap. Think I paid $15 for mine.
