I use an 18mm wrench & ratchet. Didn't cost a thing. I had them in the red box that lives in the garage.

I like the Teraflex. They're easy to use and work well. I am sure there are others out that work well too.

Default Terraflex hands down

Ok the wrench is the cheapest but the terraflex setup is the easiest.

Why because you can see exactly what you are trying to line up.

Most of the other setups use a tube and shaft setup to put the link back together you put the shaft back in the tube and use a pin stright through to keep them from separating again. On the trail you pull the pin and separate them.

Problem is when you are trying to put them back together you can't see exactly how far off the hole in the shaft is because it is in the tube. it could be above or below the hole in the tube. Lining them up is a real pain sometimes. If it's dark or you have ice on everything forget it!

Since the Terraflex one's are solid and attached on the bottom. You only need to remove a pin to slide them off the "smooth" 1/2 inch bolt. To put them back you can see exactly where you need to go. Also since the hole is about 1/2" it's way easier to line up and doesn't get to icy because of the plastic bushing.

notice the "smooth" bolt the link fits over then slide the pin in the bolt end to keep the link from coming off.

Default I will not be needing my Tera disconnects

My lift kit came with the Teraflex sway bar disconnects, but from my understanding, they do not get used on the Rubicon's because of the automatic configuration. I want to get my lift installed to make sure, but will have some available that I will sell for far less than what they are retail. Let me know if you are interested. I should have them available in about 2-3 weeks once my lift is installed.

I think you may want to install the The Tera Diso Links also, they measure approximately 10" length vs stock 5" in length.
