Sway Bar Play
I have 3 questions.
1 - I grabbed my swaybar and put some force on it laterally and it moved back and forth about a 1/2 inch. Is this normal/acceptable?
2 - If it is a problem, would new bushings fix it?
3 - Are there any swaybar upgrades for the XJ? I have never seen them but I wasn't sure.

If your swaybar is making a lot of noise (squeaking) it is due to the fact that the bushings are worn. My swaybar has play but it is also very noisy due to the bushings. If your swaybar doesnt have noise I wouldnt worry about it until it starts getting noisy.

addco makes some aftermarket xj swaybars.
but for the offroad crowd you could upgrade to a currie anti-rock.
measure the diameter of your swaybar and go the auto pahts store and pick up some bushings to fix that play.

as for currie, they do have the universal anti-rocks that could be mated ot an xj with an unknown amount of work.
other options would be the newskyjacker deely and the new teraflex deely

Really? Is it the right lenght? I need a new horn from a jeep anyway and so maybe ill pick up a new tie rod while im at it, my current one is bent. I know that throws the alignment off but im thinking maybe i can just adjust for it??
