Sway bar disconnect.
I want to disconnect my sway bars for off road outings. I don't want
to buy any after market disconnects right now, just want to disconnect
when I need and reconnect when I hit the road. I need suggestions.
This is on a 95 YJ. Thanks in advance.

You can just unbolt it at the bottom of the connecting link and zip tie
or rope it to the shock tower top I believe, it doesn't take long at all
after the first time... Antiseize is 'highly' recommended on the
threads and pin when you put it back together.
A friend with his TJ did this all the time. On the TJ one side of the
bolt was a torx, the other side a nut. It was easy when I recommended
just 'holding' the torx side still and using the wrench on the nut...
Then he got those 'quick disconnects', LOL!
Yup. they disconnected 'quick' alright, but they 'sure' don't call em
'quick connects' for a reason. Sometimes he would need two extra people
standing on and/or holding up the bumper to reconnect the suckers.

Thank you very much. I will try it. Right now I am having a problem
removing the link. I got the nuts removed, but they are either really
rusted on there or there are other forces at work against me.
Thanks,

Well I just got the sway bar disconnected, and not to my suprise, my
31 " M/Ts rubbed the flairs when I took it thru a culvert near my
home. Well, I have been planning on ordering a lift soon, guess the
time is now! Any suggestions on lift height? I will probably at some
point run 32's, but for now, until there worn, 31's. Will two inches
be enough?
Thanks,
Greg
