So I am going to completely take off my rear sway bar so I can flex the rear but what about my front should I completely take it off or just waste the money on disconnects lemme know if ur xj is a dd and if ur sway bar is off because mines a dd and wanna know if it is road safe and if any major problems may occur and so on thanks..

Personally i would gets some disco's for the front if your jeep is primarily a DD! If it's mostly in town driving (under 35mph) I wouldn't worry to much... but if your at all on the highways and such I would definitely leave it hooked up (that's what it's designed to do...anti-sway)! If you choose to go without it just be careful about swerving and sharp cornering...it does make a difference! Just my $.02

Ya agreed man I broke the bolt that connects my disco to my swaybar and drove it for one day(its my dd). It gets sketchy.

no rdplz

x3 disco the front.

i drove it on the freeway with the sway bar disconnected up front and it is like driving a boat...not so safe i would say. ditch the rear, it is unneeded, and get discos for the front.

Like everybody else said . . ditch the rear sway bar and disco the front . . taking the front sway bar off is almost a death wish . . the money on quick discos will be well worth it . . and if your too cheap you can always make your own

Ok being rather new to the jeeps and everything what the heck is a disco? I understand its something for the sway bar but other than that no idea.

Sorry for postin on your thread about it

A quick disconnect allows you to quickly disconnect your front sway bar by just pulling a pin.. reason being they allow you to flex more and your unit will perform alot better off road...

Ok thanks everyone but one last question if I ditch the rear will I be alright on the e way at speeds over 55mph? And if I leave it on correct me if im wrong but my rear end wont flex much with it attached right?

onew1ckedxj

You'll be fine at higher speeds . . and yes if you leave it attached it will limit your flex

6.5 LA lift no sway bars here - no problems

My old XJ had a 4.5 in lift with no sway bars. It does get scary at times, but I got use to it. I had the spare on the roof rack and it did make a big difference. It made it a lot worst. It was also my DD. For highway speeds I would say you need at least a front one.

Gee oh Dee

How does not having the front sway bar connected get scary?

You know its disconnected, are you trying to drive like your in a F1 car?

I've taken mine on several hour-long freeway trips and never once had any issue. I've never had any scary or near death situations.

Once I was going over some train tracks at 35mph and got a 30ft DW experience, but after 3 seconds it was gone. And it wasn't on the freeway.

I must be really uber good at driving, my truck has never "scared" me in any way.

Its not about feeling "scared" its more about the other person who might not be paying attention and cut you off, or the deer that runs across the road that you swerve to avoid . . running without a front sway bar on the road with other drivers is just stupid
