I was looking at adding quick disco's but for the price difference I'll do homemade accomplish the same thing and put the money toward the next item, which I'm leaning towards a hi lift or trail lights. I may even swing by the hardware store today since I'm off and have the jeep at the dealer anyway. They owed me a hitch from when I bought it!!!

I did some searching on here and there is good info in a thread named "Home Mod Sway bar disconnects" thanks for the pic! I stopped at home depo but the didn't have the right pins to hold it in place. I'll try the local hardware store this afternoon. Then to find a better way to keep them out of the road when disconnected... I'm gonna try and find a place to put a bolt that they can be connected.

I also have been running the "poor man discos", and i have about 20k on them. You may want to paint the clevis pins if you're in an area that uses a lot of salt in the winter, as mine have some surface corrosion, but it's nothing too bad. They clink when it's warm outside, but they're safe as far as I'm concerned. I figure if a bolt the same size can be used to hold the engine to its mounts, it's safe to use for discos.
