Sway Bar Disconnects

Post by aazz »

Just a quick question. With sway bar disconnects for a GQ Patrol wagon do you need two disconnects for each sway bar or just one :?:

What do people do with the swaybars while they're disconnected to stop them rattling around?

We always just unbolt both ends of dad's front swaybar, never had it catch on anything. Dunno if the back would be any different though.

As far as I know (which is not very far) it disconnects one side only

That's correct, the factory disconnect releases one side only. The aftermarket disconnects only need one side to be removed (pin), provided the length of the link is adequate to the height of the lift.
