Well lets see my Jeep just made a 2500 mile trip nonstop with my wife driving. She didn't explode and die. 4.5" of lift and 33s on 16x7s with 4.5" of backspacing so still a pretty narrow Jeep. I have had it sideways on pavement multiply times, had a wheel off the ground, had two wheels off the ground, had it in the air, been forced out of my lane at 70MPH, had deer encounters@45MPH and so on. Never in any of those times did I wish I had swaybars. I did what you are supposed too. Someone swerves at you slow down and pull out of the way don't swerve like the world is ending. Deer hopped out in front I hit the brakes (not skidding without ABS as well) and honked. Notice how I DID NOT swerve. Been in snow with it as well didn't die then either.
Since the sways got dumped with my original lift the Jeep has gained 8K+

I stopped using my sway bar a year ago cause it was making noise. Finally took it off all together after installing winch. Yea I get body roll but I'm use to it now and I know my XJ and I'm the only driver of it.
Anybody wanna buy some noisy quick disconnects?
