Default Teraflex quick disco help

I am completely lost trying to figure out how to install these teraflex quick disconnects. The swaybar links are different from the one's pictured in the directions and all the install write ups I found, and look more like the rear sway bar links on teraflex's website. I'm including a picture of the links they sent me. Please let me know if teraflex screwed up and sent the wrong ones, or if I just don't know what I'm doing(which is usually the case). Thanks!Click image for larger version

Those look like the ones I just installed last month on my JKU. What part are you questioning? The thing that threw me for a loop was that I had to push out the metal bushings on one end in order to get them to slide over the part where it disconnects on the axle. My thread https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/modi...nnects-233696/ here might help you out.

If not, ask more questions. I'll try to help out.

Is that all the parts that it came with? There should be studs for the lower mounts that have holes at the tip for the quick release pin. Also, there should be a set of landing blocks for when they are disco'd.

I'm not sure about the end on the right side of the picture that has a bolt on it. All the write ups I've seen it looks like the links have holes on both ends. The bolts had a nut threaded on them in the packaging so I have an extra set of those as well. All the other pieces are present and correct.

The ones I installed last month looked exactly like yours. I installed the end with the bolt on to the sway bar. So far so good, tho I do get some tire rub when disconnected at full lock in either direction. I posted a thread here and emailed TF about the rub and never got any answers. I'll post pics in a second.

Ok thanks everyone, just wanted to be sure. I'll try installing today if I can get that damn metal sleeve out of the bushing.

Mine slid right out if I pushed on it with one of the studs they are supposed to slip over.
