Home-fab Quick Discos!
Anyone ever try fabricating a set of disco's from the factory front sway bar links? I'm keeping my XJ at stock height for a little while and Rough Country said they don't make a set that size. Any help here would be much appreciated, thanks!

Lol not actual quick discos, but dirt cheap. The nut on the lower link is 3/4 and isn't too tricky to get off. Oh do you still have the original sway bar links?
