Default 2.5 - 6" compatible sway bar disconnects on a stock lift.

sounds retarded I know.. but I bought these disconnects thinking I could install them without a lift. Guess I shoulda researched a bit more before buying.

The question is: What would happen if these were installed on a Jeep with no lift.. ? I know it wouldn't be a good thing, so I don't plan on installing them without one. Just curious as to what kind of destruction would take place, or if theres a way to perhaps make it work.

These are rough country quick disconnects compatible with 2.5" to 6" of lift. I have no lift at all.

If they are long you can cut them.

I actually thought about using the hardware supplied to perhaps install on the Jeep but use the stock links since they are the correct length.. not sure how that'd work- need to look at the hardware. Just an idea. I'll do some comparison. Might need to just lift it lol

Having short links is bad, (there is quite a bit of pictorial evidence of this) and most will suggest that you get the swaybars at least level after a lift, but a bit positive is better. Unless you have a serious amount of up-travel, I don't see that you will have an issue running them at the shortest setting.
