Sway Bars Connected vs Disconnected

In this short video we show a comparison of the same Jeep traversing an obstacle with the sway bars connected and again disconnected. This shows a good example of the benefits that come from disconnecting. This is a 2020 JLU Sport S on 33" tires and a 2.5" lift with Teraflex Sway Bar Quick Disconnects. We have now switched the Apex autoLynx Sway bar disconnects. They are much easier/faster to disconnect/reconnect, especially when the Jeep is muddy.

Thanks for posting! Great quick example to show others newer to wheeling.

[@TealOxAdv]

Thank you. We will also have an upcoming video that will show the effectiveness of the APEX autoLinx sway bar disconnects.

[@christulumello586]

Thanks for the video. Big difference

[@TealOxAdv]

Thanks.

[@OffRoadAdventures155]

This is a really good example of the side to side comparison. My FJ bounced it’s way through that obstacle when I hit it! Front sway bar still on and all… 😆

[@TealOxAdv]

Thanks! It was definitely a fun obstacle that demonstrates the capabilities of the vehicles.

[@OffRoadAdventures155]

@@TealOxAdv there was no shortage of obstacles there! We played on most of them.

I gotta get this done 🤞

[@TealOxAdv]

You can always do the method Kevin used. 🤣

[@KLsuperspeed]

Not to mention occupant comfort! It allows more energy to transfer between the shocks and springs and less into your seat!

[@TealOxAdv]

Good points. Thanks for the comment.

How do you disconnect the sway bar with the Teraflex sway bar disconnect

[@TealOxAdv]

The Teraflex has a pin you take out and the then you swing the sway bar link up to a bracket. We switched from that system to the Apex autoLynx which just requires the twist of a knob on top of the sway bar link.

@@TealOxAdv is it easy to disconnect and connect the sway bar? Also are there only 2 for the front axle or also 2 on the rear

[@TealOxAdv]

@@bobcat718 The Teraflex is easier than unbolting the regular ones, but the Apex autoLynx are very easy.

[@TealOxAdv]

Note that we do not receive any kind of commission for the Apex autoLynx.

[@TealOxAdv]

Yes, there only two for the front. See my previous comment regarding the ease of use,

[@jeffi.8074]

Do you only disconnect front sway bar links?

[@TealOxAdv]

Yes, the rear axle typically doesn’t have as much room for articulation. I would be concerned about too much instability unless it was a rock crawler buggy.

[@PLT123]

Is it possible to disconnect the sway bar while in 2 wheel drive? For a rubicon

[@TealOxAdv]

Not with a stock setup. It is possible with the Tazer JL. We have a JLU Sport and use manual disconnects.
