ScottL If i were you, I would do a little research on Sway bars and Offroading. Not only is it essential to remove the rear. but to use your suspension to its full potential, Before going off road you should always disconnect your front sway bar as well. There are about 20 company's that make front sway-bar disconnects for the XJ/ZJ..
Also research Airing down your tires.

Right. already got jks quick disconnects on the front and air down everytime before hitting the trail. i wasn't so sure about out back though & no company offers quick disconnects for the rear of an xj. thanks for the tip xj-scott. i'm learning slowly but surely.Originally Posted by nw-xj-scott

speaking of airing down; what tire pressure do you run when you go wheeling? not running beadlocks, i'm usually around 10-15psi.

I air down to 10-15psi as well. and i'm another vote for throwing the rear sway bar in the trash.

thanks crazy. i'm getting used to driving on the highway without one. it felt really loose at first but i got used to it on a 1400 mile trip to ouray and back recently. another part of the blame for sloppy handling i discovered is due to my front shocks being blown out and the unit bearings are also toast. luckily i have spare bearings from a friend who just switched to warn hubs and rancho offers free lifetime replacement in this economy. as soon as i R&R all that hopefully this daily driver will have a much improved ride and i'll be over the rear sway bar all together.Originally Posted by crazyxj
Still need a rear sway bar?
