Put my rear sway bar disconnects on today. The only snag I ran into was not realizing I needed to drill out the upper sleeves to 1/2" ID for the bolt.
A quick trip down the street to my buddies house fixed that. Otherwise the install is pretty straight forward.
The stud mount didn't come with a washer. The stock links don't use washers but they use flange head nuts which prevents the nut from digging in when torqued. So i threw a 7/16" washer on there for peace of mind.
Does the whole link come off, or do you unhook one end and secure the link somewhere (and where?)?

Im going to copy what Ron did and make quickfist mounts to hold the links when disconnected. They come with special studs for "storage" but I didnt see an obvious place to mount them on the xk.
How much were they? I've been thinking about them ever since I saw Jay's wk flex at RC.

You don't need them though.. takes 2 minutes to just take the top bolt out to accomplish the same thing.
But the best part is they are adjustable. I had mine at stock length before I lifted my jeep years ago. Then when I added the 2 inch lift I adjusted them accordingly. Again when I got the 4 inch spring for the rear I was able to adjust them longer once again!

Hey adam when you disconnect the rear do you bungee the bar to one of the lower arms?
No I just disconnect the lower end at the quick disconnect and pivot the end link towards the front of the jeep. Then I tighten the upper bolt about a 1/4 turn which keeps it in placeOriginally Posted by Matt
