Didn't have my swaybar disconnected, but still managed to get over stuff last weekend.

Just a reminder, this is with the Upcountry package and 2" spacers, rolling 31s. But its not always clean.
I'll also admit to some extra hardware, trackbar relocation bracket, adjustable upper arms and fixed length lowers for the front only. Haven't done anything to the back yet. Seriously considering a F>R swap with some 4" XJ coils, just so I don't have the spacers... I like this height. Big enough to be noticed, but not so much to be hard to drive on the highways.

Not an lsd, there would be a spring in the carrier, right in the middle of the spiders.

How would the clutches work if there wasn't a spring? How do you know yours was an lsd? Not trying to be a dick, just wondering.
