Hi all,

I am almost done installing the Teraflex 2.5" BB and have a question about the relocation of the stock rear sway bar links to the front. In the Project-JK Write-up, WOL seems to just be able to swap the links out with all four wheels on the ground. When I went to install them this evening, it seems the rear ones are way too long for the two mounts up front without having to jack the front end back up, remove both wheels/tires and drop the axle to allow the distance between the mounts to increase...

Anyone else have this "problem," and if so, did you just do like I suggested above and re-lift the front end onto jackstands and drop the front axle without the wheels/tires on?

Thanks for the help,
ColinW

I look forward to providing everyone a write-up/picture story of my installation very soon!

 

I was able to get the new rear links installed with minimal problems (just a very tight fit due to the short mounts on the lower axles), however I am not able to get the front ones on, as like I said, they are too long to connect to both mounts. The ones in the front don't seem like they'd be straight up and down either, with the electronic disco almost in the bumper.

I didnt have a problem with mine, but maybe if you hit the e disconnect, you will be able to move the sway bar ends to get them connected.

 

Here's a pic of what I am talking about:

 

All you need to do is rotate your sway bar up until your links can be installed. It might be a little stiff but it will go. You should be able to do this with all four on the floor just as you would on the trail when disconnecting your links.

 

Oh wow!

Thanks so much for your help.

With mine you could NOT due one at a time had to unbolt both then rotate it up.

 

Agreed. This is what I did as well (push the bar up). The alignment (side to side) was not initllay correct b/c 1 side was higher than the other. However, it should even out when it's on the ground. Just make sure to mount them both the same way.
