Sway bar disconnect

[AustincoxZJ]

I just got a zj and was wondering if anyone knows if simply disconnecting the front sway bars are enough to safely off road with or are sway bar disconnects a better option? Thanks -Austin

I deep sixed the swaybar on me XJ and me current YJ ! ...... heck I even deep sixed the tracbar on YJ, and its been daily driver for like ... 4 years ? :)


if you drive it like a jeep without swaybar, no problems, if you drive like a texting soccer mom, ...... you have other issues to worry about ! ;)


and maybe my lift springs (3" ? ) are just stiff, but they locate axle and allow me to corner at fairly faster speeds than folks with swaybars ! :) ..... or maybe its just that I know how to drive faster than them ! ;)


learned with a 66 Chevelle SS back in 76 ! :)

on the zj's (which i've had three), you can run with no track bar IF you remember its gone during manuvers on roadway...especially at higher speeds. I took mine off. discnnects are safer, but I just chose not to run them.
