Nothing is wrong with it. Mine had a loose bolt, which broke when we were 'wheeling last year. Suddenly the XK... A) had a really nice soft ride, and B) also had a banging sound.

The banging sound was the sway bar end thumping its mount as we bashed along. I just pulled the bar's end back and away. Problem solved. It was a hairy ride back on the highway as it felt top heavy and unstable.

I haven't done it yet, but my plan is to drill a shoulder bolt, and use small ''tractor'' pins to lock it in for the highway. I'll probably use a bungy to hold the end of the bar from hitting anything.

And... by the way, considering how the swaybar and its links are designed, I see no reason whatsoever to remove BOTH sides. So the moving swaybar follows one side or the other's movement, who cares? When I do my bolt/pin thing, it'll just be ONE side.

It's amazing the difference it makes getting rid of the swaybar.
