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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

So where does one find a non-working rubicon sway bar? Cannot seem to put in the correct search words to get anything but working ones to come up and they are running around $900.
@wayalife Жыл бұрын
I found mine on craigslist but have seen them on marketplace too. Even for a working disconnect, $900 is way too much these days.

Have you seen (I'm sure you have) the Apex autoLYNX SWAY BAR DISCONNECT? While very pricey, It's pretty sweeeeet!! Great video BTW!!
@wayalife2 жыл бұрын
Yes, I have seen it and as I point out in this video, there are LOTS of options available out there. Of course, the point of this video is to show what my personal favorite solution is and why.

@@wayalife oh, well yeah of course!! I was just hoping maybe you had an opinion on them, that’s all. How’s Pippi?!?! 😆
@wayalife2 жыл бұрын
well, as you said, they're very pricey. This solution is not and in my personal opinion, still a better option. Of all the solutions I've tested over the last 20 some years, it's what I prefer most and still run on my JK.

Awesome video as always and a great topic - disconnects for non-Rubicons like my Jeep 😋 . EVO has a pneumatic version of the no-limits as well. Get the ACM on Pippy!

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?
@wayalife2 жыл бұрын
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 another question please I’d like to get some of the quick disconnect swaybar links for the front of my 2023 JL wrangler. Which ones do you suggest that are good to install and also I would like to not have to cut the mounting bracket like I see on some of them. I don’t really need a sway bar disconnect too much but when I need it, I’d like to have one. Any suggestions would be appreciated again thank you so much.
@wayalife Жыл бұрын
If you don't see yourself really needing them, I would recommend that you just stick with the factory links and manually disconnect them as needed. You can see how it's done in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIK7Z4l7h65olZI
