This is what I did as well. Then I got quite a few comments here about popping the tires with the swaybar in that position, and that it is better to secure the bar down in it's normal position. (where it is when the links are connected.) I'll be using short bungees to keep it lower from now on out.

It was this pic that brought up the comments:


Concerning the TF bracket, there have been quite a few posts about the tires contacting it and ripping out the retainer pins, and having to carry a lot of spare pins. I really like the idea of having the link secured up out of the way, but replacing pins all the time kind of defeats the purpose of paying for the bracket system instead of just using a bungee?

So just to clarify.... Zip tie the link to the swaybar, then do you zip tie the swaybar to the frame or some other point to keep it neutral?
I haven't tried actually doing this yet but when I look for good attachment points to the frame it seems like the driver side is the only side I may be able to run a zip tie....
I am trying to think of a way to make this... Quicker!!!! was debating on finding a location for an eye bolt so a bungee could hook right up.

I would consider this if I knew I wasn't going to rub. Do you have any issues? I know it depends on backspacing, and I think my Procomp's have 4.5"... Do you think that would work?
