Default Rough country sway bar disconnects

Does anybody have any opinions of these discos?
Also does anybody know the minimum and length of adjustability for these links?

I have them they work great! Depending on your lift they have different ones you can buy. Check out their website for more details.

thanks! I have about 2 inches of lift so I am trying to figure out if their 2.5 inch sway bar has enough adjustability for a slightly smaller lift.

You want to keep the sway bar level for best ride quality. If you need to you can use a cutoff wheel trim the threaded end down and use a die set to put more threads on the shaft. Standard 1/2" die set. I'v read of people on here already doing it with great results. I'm sure 1/2" off level will not be a big deal.

I had them then took them off
I got more bodyroll out of them than I did with oem. There definitely was a difference I didn't like it

Negative swaybar angle is what you need to watch out for. (while the links are connected and the axle is drooped). A little positive angle from 2.5" links on a 2" lift, I wouldn't worry about it.

And since we are talking about disconnects and not fixed links, it's more of a non-issue, since it is kinda hard to flip a swaybar and pretzel the links when they aren't connected...

Default Pictures of LED light bar.

Here are some pictures of them in my driveway. Best $60 I'v spent. Connected my rear tire comes off the ground. I would recommend a petroleum paste to keep them lubed. It makes them easier to slide on and off. Also I did not use the frame mounts, I just bought some tactical ties. You can wrap them tight then unwrap them when your done.
