Electronic sway bar disconnect on a Sport?
I have a 2013 JK Sport and I am looking to install an electronic sway bar disconnect system. I understand it mounts to the crash bar, but what is involved with wiring, button in the cab, and light on the dash?

Not sure anyone has tackled that. Since the sway bar is interconnected with the Jeep software, I suspect much more difficult than anyone has been able to hack into. There is a thread on hacking the CAN bus. You might inquire in it.

I did this on my 2011 sport. The sway bar mounts exactly the same as your sport one. to wire it up you'll need the Under chassis Mopar harness. I got a vin off a rubicon they had on the lot that was the same year and had the dealer order one for me. You also need the switch for the swaybar that mounts on the left side of the dash on the 2011 and up models. Quadratec sells the harness and switch for the 07 thru 10 models. You will need to remove the passenger side body mounts and raise the body to get on top of the fuel tank to run the new harness ( or drop the fuel tank). It's pretty straight forward if you do it one plug at a time. After you install the harness you'll need to get your dealer to activate it and your done. It's not as hard as it sounds took me a couple hours to run harness and drill hole in dash to mount the switch (easier on the 07 thru 10 models)

Rubicon Electronic Disconnect Sway Bar
I have sold the axles but still have an almost new swaybar if you do not have one yet.
