Real Jeeps don't come with sway bars, they come with Real spring

After I broke one, I replaced the ends with Teraflex quick disconnects.

Lots of PB Blaster, a 3lb sledge and a pickle fork got the old ***** off.

PB Blaster is your friend.

Have fun!

The stock links really suck. Mine broke during some very calm beach
driving.

I didn't get to fixing it for about a year, and noticed that with no
sway bar, the front suspension works incredibly well, except during
highway driving or towing. I decided to go with discos so I could use
it or lose it.

Every failure on a Jeep is an opportunity to customize it! <G>
