Default Ribbing

Worth the ribbing for sure...which I am going to set myself up for more of with this question.

When I hit the electronic sway bar disconnect button, what if anything can I see happen with the sway bar...I mean at what point on the sway bar does it disconnect from...well...whatever?

I had someone hit the button while I crawled under neath and I couldn't tell the difference between when it was connected or disconnected.

What should I be seeing...rib away!

As far as I'm aware it actually unlocks the bar itself inside that big 'ole motor thingy you have mounted on it, so I don't believe you'll actually see much of anything, drive around on the road on some corners and you'll know if it's working
But....seriously....you had a shop install that like that ?? I'd be looking for a refund or something...and I'd be checking every other bloody part they touched

Default Sounds right

Whew! I was hoping you would say that the disconnecting takes place there...if not, I would of had more problems.

Ya, I guess I should be pis#$d at the shop, but other than that mistake, bad as it was, I have not had any other issues...yet.

It should take no longer than a few minutes to take it off and switch yourself. You should be able to do this especially if you plan to actually wheel it and go out on a trail.... just saying.

I beleive it's a 19 or 18 mm bolt. Tourque is only at 75 lbs...
