First commute today with the spartan locker in. Found it to be nearly invisible. Got tire chirp on one right turn while accelerating hard from a standstill. Rained this afternoon and found no odd handling characteristics.

Added Rough Country sway bar disconnects today. Install went fine. Then when back on the ground noticed that the links are too long. I already have them shortened as much as possible. I am going to contact Rough Country to see if there is any other method I can use or if they have shorter links available.

Open for suggestions, including other brands worth looking at.

Thanks.

John

Regarding the above post... I am considering cutting the shaft of each disco to a length that would put the sway bar level as it should be, and then welding the two.

Thoughts?
