Looks pretty simple. I'm still going with the Articulator though...

So which type is your front swaybar disconnect Dave? Is it like the ones above or like the Articulator?

hello noel
just remember when you get a articualor as soon as you a ready to go offroad take the pin out because i have snapped 2 pins from forgetting to take the pin out then going over rough terain.

Same as ones above, still not on vehicle yet.
Seemed to be the easiest to install and use, interested to hear what your thoughts on articulator are.
Mine cost $45, which seemed good for the improvement it is supposed to make.

Thanks for the advice Dino. Will be a while before I actually get it and install it but will keep that in mind.


Articulator is a fair bit more than that Dave, but looks well made and should last a while (apart from the pin that is :wink: ).

The Articulator is a quick release swaybar disconnect made by Bitsamissin (Frank) and his mate... It was originally designed for the Pajero, but should be fairly easily adaptable to other IFS designs. I have ordered one but it wont be ready for a while and I wont have time to put it in for a while anyway...
Here's the site http://www.peppernet.org/articulator/
