Outer Limits 4x4 Board

has anyone used swaybar dissconects on an 80 series, the ones i've seen pics of on other vehicles have a removable pin on the locating rod but this would allow the swaybar to nearly drag on the ground. Was thinking of removing the nut on the bolt that holds the swaybar to the front diff drilling through the bolt and fitting a pin to hold it in then make a bracket to secure it to the chassis when off road . But can't do that with the rear. Any ideas , and no I can't just remove the swaybars, tried that and it handled like poo

I am making a similiar pin for the front swaybar so it can be fixed to the chassi when I dont need it. I've been driving around with no rear swaybar for 2 years now, I dont think the handling is to bad. But I have been thinking about refitting it and just disconnecting one side, not sure how this will affect wheel travel though.

my brother has an 80 series and we just unbolt the swaybar and tie it up out of the way... 5 minute job

went down and had a look and ended up doing it in about half an hour. works ok just a bit fiddly if i could figure out how to put pics on i would post them up

Do what i did to mine. Take them off

not when my wife is driving our 3 week old baby around in it
