Outer Limits 4x4 Board

could some one give me a few pointers on where not to use the disconnect rear swaybar handle,
a mate has said not on angles as the vehicle will tend to roll,,
any other opinions please,
thanks inadvance

i've removed the swaybars on my ute .... to much hassel disconnecting them all the time .... just have to drive a lil slower round the corners
off road would leave it dissconected .... dont drive sidewayz on slopes
i've been on some wild angels ..... so i think anyhow ... its all line of attack

What lift you running?

With a 4" and over, you can totally stuff a swaybar as you will have more flex than the bar can handle.

I have lost mine altogether. I don't miss them either. Good shocks have a lot to do with good road manners and bodyroll.

Offroad bodyroll on sideslopes is not an issue for me either.

On my family wagon I've put the rear swaybar back on - rig handles better all around. The swaybar isn't real big to influence the handling off road anyway. We run a 6" coil, I've lengthened the links to correct (neutralise) the bar's location. I feel the swaybar evens out the handling offroad - helps to place more (marginally) pressure onthe front end to perform - the rears are quite flexy. I wouldn't stress too much where or when you disconnect the bar.

do you mean the factory disconnect? if so all it does is allow one end of the sway bar to move up and down about 40 mm or so.
Even 2" lifted springs can put too much stress on the little balljoints on either side of the swaybar if you dont disconnect it when in terrain that causes one rear wheel to to flex a fair bit.
Use the disconnect when driving over undulating terrain [to take the pressure off the little ball joints].
And use the disconnect whet travelling over potholed or rough ground as it allows one wheel to drop into holes without pulling the whole body down and makes it a much more comfortable ride.
The disconnect makes buggerall difference to side slopes unless your right on the point of rolling over.

Thanks guys,
I should of commented but i meant the factory disconnect handle in the cabin,,
I've got a 2"coil lift on my lwb gq and from i read in the thread off road i should pull use the lever to save stress on the sway bar its self,,
thanks for the advise
great information
