I'm looking to make some cheap discos for front and rear sway bars on my 04 WJ. So far, I disconnected the rear where the bar meets the link arm to check the bolt sizes/ make it easier to remove the next time. I was unsuccessful with the front, so I'm making a trip to Walmart today for PB Blaster

I plan on replacing the bolt with a clevis pin, and then using a cotter pin to hold it all together. Please let me know of a better way if you've done this before!

Does anyone have the bolt sizes for front and rear where the sway bar connects to the link arm? I measured 5/16 in the rear, but I'd like to make sure before making a purchase. I'm assuming the front is the same size, but you know what happens when people assume...

 

I don't know the size, but someone here used wing nuts, washers, and a cotter pin for a total cost of something like 60 cents. Could try that.

 

disconnected my front sway bar. is it ok that i disconnected it at the link arm? as in the sway bar is connected to the link arm but the link arm is not connected to the axle.

 

Just make sure that nothing is gonna get caught in or near the spring. And use caution without it connected.

I used some sturdy wire to pin it up and out of the way.
