Ive had for the past few years 6'' blocks under my stock springs in my rear and finally decided to change them for new ones because there so warn out. With the blocks rather than bigger springs I was able to still use my rear swaybar and now I just have it disconnected. I was riding on the highway today and it just felt like my *** end was just being thrown around, which im pretty sure if just because I dont have the sway bar in. Is there and bracket or anything out there where I can reconnect my rear swaybar with bigger springs?

Holy F***ing blocks! Throw those things in the trash where they belong, throw that rear sway bar away while your at it. You need shackles, and atleast aal's or even better new full leaf packs. You can get 6 inches pretty easy without using blocks. If you still feel like you need them afterwards I wouldnt use anything over a 2 inch block. I havent ran a rear sway bar in my rig since I bought it, those big ***** blocks are your problem man.

Why is it that I feel my *** end swaying now if everyone else seems to run without rear swaybars?

What did your buddy do to make it long enough to sit on the springs and still reach the cab?

Your back end should not move around.

I would make certain your bushings are not worn out and the shackels are nice and tight.

Also the u bolts.

Everything is new and tight I went over everything again 2 weeks after I put it on just to snug it all down

something ain't right.... the first mod any xj owner should make is to remove that rear sway bar and take it to the scrap yard... it doesn't do anything. Take a deep breath, and look over what you're doing again.
