Disconnecting your front sway bar is one of the best things you can do to help improve the capabilities of your Jeep JL Wrangler or JT Gladiator off road. Doing this will allow your front axle to have a greater amount of articulation or what is known as flex and that’ll help your Jeep to be stable and keep all your tires planted on the ground, even while driving over significantly uneven terrain. Of course, if you have a Rubicon, this can be done with a push of a button but on a Sport, Sahara, Willys or pretty much any non-Rubicon model made, you'll have to break out some tools to do it. And, it's for this reason that there are a whole host of aftermarket options available and all are designed to help make this job quicker and easier. In this video, you'll get to see what my favorite sway bar disconnect solution is and why and you'll even get to see how to install it.
Be sure to watch our follow up video that shows how this disconnect works:

Awesome project, I love the efficiency and creativity used here. That distinct sound heard when using the EVO release was so satisfying!

Not the worst setup, at least until I configure something better... as usual, terrific video from Eddie!

That is a great solution for the disconnect. I've the JKS ones and they so work great. But as to 'used' part upgrades, thete are great things to be had dirt cheap. I picked up a brand new Rubicon Recon suspension for $100 - the guy had a mopar lift put on his as soon as it arrived at the dealership. It gave me a 2.5" lift on my 2 door sport s. $60 for the longer control arms and I still spent less than $200 for a nice upgrade.

I would never argue that a upgraded rubicon is a better than stock jeep, but I never made the jump and always get base sports and have no issues. I will say , MT tires or something similar is a huge upgrade over the HT/AT stock tires. But... I am still running my cheapies on my jl and keep up with everyone other than in the bogs. My point, stock sport is sooooo good anyhow so this channel is my jam.

I considered that route but when I happened across the Apex Autolynx being mentioned in Jan of ‘21, I was one of the first to get them installed. Disconnect with the turn of a knob on the top of the end links and reconnect within 15secs and drive. For $400, they’re my favorite mod. No crawling in the dirt and no electric to run. They just replace your end links. Yeah, I’m a fanboy now. lol
@wayalife
@wayalife 2 года назад
LOL - as I state in the video, there are LOTS of aftermarket options available. For our purposes, we're trying to keep Pippi as stock as possible and that any mods we do make are done with budget in mind. $140 for a factory swaybar disco is that and we love it. Of course, with just a little more money, I can make it work off the air compressor I do plan on installing and it would work with a push of a button too.

@@wayalife Oh I hear you. Keep the ideas coming! What you did here was great. When I was looking into it, I had no idea a JK sway bar disconnect would work. The few used JL units online were $400 on up. I’d have gone the Evo mod, like you, so a bit more $ to get that in there too. The Autolynx just peaked my curiosity and they ended up being the flashiest pieces on my Jeep. For the most part, I like to keep mine modded with stock parts too. That way, if I break a part far from home…they’re usually easier to come by to get going again. Thanks for sharing this idea with the community. 👍🏼

awesome vid and thx for links to tools/parts! ((i would've shaved the housing and not that 'zig-zag' bar in case it's under a load.))

If you look at it carefully, it's essentially an exhaust hanger. There is a rubber sling that helps to keep the motor from rotating. In other words, there is NO load.

As I show in the video, a JK sway bar WILL require a bit of clearancing on the motor hanger but otherwise, yes, it will bolt up.

So much appreciate what you do here, especially for us lower budget folks with the sport models. Love all the videos. I am ready to pull the trigger on this Active Stabilizer Bar 68572691AA (less the actuator) for a very good price. It says it is for JT but I feel that it will fit the Sport JL. Would love to use this with the Evo disconnect. Think it will work?

What's the distance between the endpoints of the bar? I've been mulling tracking one of these bars down for a non-Jeep application but I haven't found good information on dimensions.

Good for you on finding a sway bar for $140. Everyone I talk to that has one wants like $300 to $1000 for just the sway bar. Just wondering if I can find one for JL or JT would this Knob work on it, or only for the JK?
@wayalife
@wayalife 2 года назад
As mentioned in the video, the sway bar motor didn't work. That's why it was so cheap. Also, the EVO knob would work on a JL or JT sway bar.

I have this on my JKU and I love it. My JL 392 has the factory nanny disconnect and cant stand it. It reconnects at 15 mph on and off, off and on... Any feed back on the JL idiot light for the swaybar, if i removed the factory motor?

As you see in this video, the disconnect I installed was from a JK and a bit of modification was necessary to make it work. A JL and a Gladiator are exactly the same up front.

Unfortunately, they are not exactly the same. There are subtle differences that make it so you can only install a JK one on a JL but not the other way around.

Hmm, here's a sway bar disconnect question. I recently picked up a set of JKS Quicker Disconnects to put on my stock JK. The install should be no issue, but I have heard reports that stock drivers might suffer popped tires when using them. Some events have happened because of the sway bar being lifted out of the way. For that, it is recommended to keep the sway bar horizontal. But there are also reports of the studs the links fit over popping tires. Any ideas of ways to prevent that, or might your trick with the steering stops for rubbing tires help?
@wayalife
@wayalife 10 месяцев назад
If you run big tires on wheels with too much back spacing like you really shouldn't, yeah, your sidewalls WILL catch on the storage studs and can cause a failure.
@scubajim
@scubajim 2 года назад
Curious - I was told when I was JK shopping in 2016 that the Rubicon e-disconnect worked well, but gave you a limited range on articulation. Is that true? I went with the JKS’s you held up at the beginning of your vid - after going with a Sport so I could build it the way I wanted. So again - curios - was I misinformed?
@wayalife
@wayalife 2 года назад
I would never pretend to know more than whoever you were talking to but for me personally, yeah, that person was a moron and you were misinformed. The ONLY thing limiting your articulation are your shocks. IF your sway bar is limiting your articulation, your links are too short.

Could you use the same setup on the rear sway bar as well
@wayalife
@wayalife Год назад
The factory rear sway bar is soft enough to manipulate by hand and will NOT limit your flex. You do NOT want to disconnect fully it as it will provide well needed stability, especially on off camber situations.
