    Agreed. That is what Scocar and I have been saying this whole time.

    How can we group hug if we are all dead from removing our swaybars? What necromancy is this?

    Prerunner -> 4WD Converted
    Pelfreybilt, Warn, BAMF, DTRL toggle on/off, FJ OEM Fog/Aux Light switches, 2012 lower center console swap, wired in auto-dimming rear view mirror, Wet-Okole inside, Weathertech , Rigid, Tint, Roto-Pax, Bestop, OME, Extended SS brake lines, TRD TX Pro/Baja Graphite 16" Rims
    so I did some pretty note-worthy emergency maneuvers not so long ago on a highway at speeds up to 75mph or higher(dodging some drunk)...yes my swaybar was off, but i'm sure my 886's coupled with ~400+lbs of armor had a large factor of keeping me planted.

    I rode in my cousins JK with disconnects earlier this year, and he couldn't drive on the highway without them being on.

    maybe wheelbase will also factor in some.

    if I were in a stock taco, I would have probably broke something.

    The fact the the rear susp on the Tacoma's helps sway as well. Leafs help keep sway at bay and the wheelbase helps as well.

    JK has a linked solid axle up front. Links and sway pretty much go hand in hand. That is why a lot of rigs that convert the rear from leafs to links, add a sway bar of some kind in the rear for DD or just don't DD that rig at all, or DD extra carefully.

    I am looking for buyers, but I needed 10 and at this rate that could take a few years. But thanks!

    And if anyone out there has a set of disconnects for sale, PM me.

    The NTSB is called in for any rollovers. They come instantly in black helicopters.
