John Currie is a Jeep suspension expert. He explains how the RockJock AntiRock Sway Bars came into use and why they are needed both on and off road.
the job of a sway bar is to limit body roll at each end of a vehicle. Sway bars off road can limit articulation. While disconnecting front sway bars helps, the lack of roll control is not good. The criteria for a good, effective off road sway bar is to not limit travel of the suspension in order to allow full articulation. But the sway bar will help control where weight is transferred during articulation so that tire loads a re better distributed. The balance between the roll resistance provided between the front and tear sway bars is important. Finding that balance is challenging and the reason the RockJock AntiRock Sway Bars work so well off road. They allow a little more body roll on the highway, but not so much as be uncomfortable on winding roads.
