Hey rubicon owners has anyone had any problems with there electronic sway bar motor failing and not disconnecting. just read a article on the forum about it and there are ways around it just want to know if anyone has had it failed and if so what mileage. or if anyone has done the workaround. Thanks Gents

 

Jk 07-11, NoLimits Manual Rubicon Swaybar Disconnect from Off-Road Evolution is my answer. In the dessert, you just, get out, turn the knob to disengage and your ready to go in 4 high even. You got to get the AEV pro cal to turn off the light. Think I bought it from Quadratec as a package deal. Think i paid $200.00 for both.

I got tired of getting out disconnecting the battery to get it working again.

With this installed, can you still use the factory electronics to connect and disconnect if it still works? Since mine still works, I'm wondering if I could have the Off Road Evolution system already installed as a backup.

 

With mine switching into 4 high without engaging the sway bar back to say street the dash light would stay on and would not disengage back in 4 low.

With the evo I can run 55 mph without getting knocked around in whop dee do's and fire roads. I still have the motor, but I would not go back

 

The EVO unit replaces the motor and actuator. Your hand becomes the motor.

 

same for me

 

Yea I'm thinking of getting it I'm not gunna get sucks with my sway bar not disconnecting lol

 

You can always just get manual quick disconnect sway links. If the mechanism fails.

About the same price, just a matter of preference. I have RK disconnects, just incase. I'll use the push button until it fails

 

Mine is still working fine at 65,000, but I figure in the next year or so I will just get a good set of disconnects in case it fails, or when it fails, and call it good.

 

'12 39k, use it often and works great
