JKS Quicker disconnects! Love them. Very easy to take on and off (if you keep them greased).

I liked my JKS's alot, only crappy thing was after 2 winters the thread rusted to hell leaving me unable to adjust them anymore I went another direction this time and picked up the rough country discos which are pretty similar to the TF and are only $60, they come with a bracket to stow the sway bar link when disco'd..I like them so far.

While I love the stuff Teraflex makes, I think the JKS are just a better design.

I'd be weary of Rough Country...... My drive side Rough Country disconnect just exploded on me 2 hours before leaving town for camping. Blew out of it's ball joint and was gone. Had to drill about a 1/2" hole all the way through the thing and bolt it back together. Pain. In. The. Ass. The rubber bushing were also gone within 5k miles if you can believe that. Cracked and fell away.

Needless to say I just ordered a pair today from David at Northridge 4x4, they rock!

I have the teraflex discos. At first it was pretty confusing on the install so I went on this forum and searched. Turned out I had to press out a bushings on one end of each link, which wasn't hard. I pushed them out with my fingers. But just have them greased and very easy to connect/disconnect. And also has a bracket to stow away.
