TeraFlex Quick Disconnects... help
I ordered a set of TeraFlex Quick Disconnects and they do not have any bolts to mount the top part of the sway bar link. I thought maybe my order was missing them, so I told the company i ordered from and TeraFlex sent me out a new package of hardware, and it again did not have the bolts for the top part of the links. The missing parts are where the top of the sway bar link bolt to the sway bar.
Am I missing something retarded here? anyone know how i'm supposed to mount these if I do not have any bolts? the stock links do not have bolts that can come off to be reused.
Also I was looking at the geometry of the links and the bracket to mount them when disconnected and if my tires are turned all the way to either side and flex, they look like it would totally rub or bend the sway bar links. and I have 3.75" back spacing on my rims. so a stock rim would totally hit them.
Any ideas or suggestions?
anyone know the bolt size that fits the top part of the sway bar?

And for what its worth, if u haven't installed them, I'd return them and get the JKS quicker discos. Like u suspected, tires do run when they are mounted in the disconnected position and turning. I plan on getting the JKS and selling these. Just me though, and nothing against TF, JKS is just a better design IMO. The only reason I didn't go that route originally is because I liked the way these had a place to mout when disconnected to keep the swaybar secured, but since disconnecting them a bajillion times, I feel confident that the swaybar will not move when disconnected and not mounted to anything, the bushings in the mount that holds the swaybar has a tight grip on it so I doubt it will move when up and not secured to anything. But that's just my $.02. And above I said use the OE bolts but u said u couldn't? I thought I used the stock bolts, I certainly don't remeber any coming with the discos, and the ones I got don't look aftermarket. Not sure? Sorry if that was wrong info.
my stock links had the bolt that was attached to the link, sort of like a ball joint for the tops, only the bottoms had bolts that could be removed. And the bottom bolts are larger and won't fit through the sway bar's holes... but I did think about just drilling out the sway bar's holes so the bottom bolts would fit, then it would be that much stronger.
I did have a set of longer links from another company, that had the bolts with them, but those broke, and was the reason I ordered the TeraFlex ones, b/c in the pictures they show 2 bolts that come with the kit (and so did the write ups I saw).

That was supposed to sa they do rub! That's one of the main reasons I'm switching. That and, I don't know if it will be similar with the others, but when I try ti grease the bushings on both ends, grease does not get distributed around the bushing, just squishes out the top. Bottom line, I haven't been impressed with them, but better than disconnecting the stock ones haha.

right, i had another brand of longer links that had all new bolts for them, but I broke one of the upper bolts on them wheeling a few weeks ago. so i bought the TF thinking it would have all new hardware. so now i'm stuck with one bolt and one clevis pin ghetto rigged, haha... but i'd like have real bolts in there, and ones stronger then the bolts that came with my other brand.
