Sway Bar Endlinks
Ok, so before I get flamed and I'm told to take the darn sway bars off, I like to keep them as I do alot of highway and back road driving.
96 XJ with a 3.5" RE Lift. Need Rear Swapbar Endlinks. Does ANYONE make them?

You need quick disconnects i just put a set on mine. Super easy to use and also if you go with Jks brand they are fully adjustable.

You will notice a big difference if you are lifted the lower you are the less youll notice. Mine feels like a van with my 5.5 lift. But handles ok when connected. I also dont have a rear sway i think some actually dont even have them from the factory but i could be wrong about that part

I just installed the same lift on my 96, if I remember correctly the directions said to discard the rear swaybar,and i asked a fellow at a 4wd shop here and he told me the same.

You are not wrong - my build sheet says 'rear sway bar removed'. 98 Limited with tow and Upcountry package (actually with every option they had)...

OP Rear sway bar: Delete it, i promise you it will not affect you as bad as you think it will. The rear doesnt really need any tweaking anyway if you decide to keep it, just leave it there

I just did a 4.5 lift and removed the rear sway its so much smoother and you dont even notice body roll. front just fab the stock bolts,take off nuts and drill a hole to fit a large body clip with washer. im doing mine like that, pull all the pins remove bolts and endlink. fast cheap discos.

Wow. All these replies and not one person even close to answering the Op's question. He said clearly in his first post he is keeping his swaybars.
