Rear Swaybar Disconnect
Hello,
I recently bought a 2014 Rubicon, and was wondering if anyone has added a rear electronic swaybar disconnect. The front one is great, but I was thinking about adding that to the rear as well and wondered if anyone has priced that out. Any tips on the subject would be appreciated.

I'm not even sure that is possible given it has to go through the computer. I honestly just remobed my rear sway bar entirely. I barely noticed a difference until around 75 to 80 mph on one specific part of the highway near me.

There is a company that makes an electronic rear sway bar. I forget the name, but saw it on Ruffstuff's website.
Wiring is simple as you wouldn't go through the computer, but direct to a switch.
Agree with the last poster that you can probably run without a rear sway bar. I don't have one and can't feel a difference.
All that said, why do you want to be able to disconnect it?

on rear just make sure if you lift your jeep your swaybar links are long enough. Even on a 2" lift the stock rear sway bars are too short. The rear swaybar is much thinner and more flexible then the front and like was posted earlier does not impact droop like a front sway bar.

NOTE: if you DO remove/disconnect rear anti-sway, and the front too, you WILL notice a huge increase in roll. I do NOT reccomend driving on the road if BOTH are disconnected.

Id definitely suggest not removing it. As others have said, you dont really gain anything for flex and just end up with a sloppier ride on-road. If you want to.. look into Currie's anti-rock for the rear. Its a little spendy but its an upgrade. Same for the front...

another thing to note - from what I've heard and it makes sense but you are a lot less stable in off camber wheeling. I have never messed with mine for that reason - another guy mentioned more body roll..same thing.
