My xj is a daily driver but still wheel it!
I've been told to take my front sway off so I can flex and heard disconnects were a rumble of noise so I shouldn't waste the money on em and take em off anyone go any ideas id appreciate it very much

So take it off or buy the disconnects? I don't wanna break but wanna get some pics flexin and most of all be able to flex with out breaking or spending much money and what about my rear end will it flex out or no? and also don't want my tires to pop cuz they stick out of my fenders is this bad for flexing with no bushwackers?

I run mine as a dd.. no sway bar, tires stick way out, and I have NEVER had a problem with slicing a tire, or breaking anything else. I still have the rear sway bar and it still will flex great in the rear. I am running 5.5" lift and 33s.. I can try and get some better pics if need
