From my reading of Mike's post, he is suggesting that it is okay to just
disconnect on one side and let the bar move as the suspension works.

I like my JKS disconnects. They do come with posts that you can screw into
the frame to hold the sway bar up out of the way when disconnected. Without
any lift (03 Rubicon), I get a lot of rubbing on the sway bar from the front
tires, and the posts that come with JKS just don't hold very well. Also be
sure to buy some extra pins - they do fall off. I got some exactly like the
ones that came with my disconnects from the local hardware store. In any
case, you should have something to tie up the sway bar when you are on the
trail just in case - you don't want the sway bar hanging if you don't have
much lift.
