OK, I'm positive this discussion has been beat to death, however with the new technology I have been reading about what is the hot ticket regarding sway bar quick disconnects?

I've used the JKS disconnects on my Jeep and helped Don with his RE disconnects. The best thing I've used has been my dual rate sway bar. Just a flip of a lever and I'm ready to go.

Dual rates are the best.

What about Currie Antirock? Has anyone had experience with these units?

I run an Antirock on my Jeep. They are very good for off road use. They are not so good for on road use, too loose. The dual rate sway bar eliminates that problem.

x2. I've used both on my Jeep and am much happier with the dual rate Swayloc.

Ha! I was waiting for the story on how you've broken the Sway Loc before (I have too, but didn't bring that up)...

I think the Swaylock is the best choice on the market for a duel purpose rig (trail/street)...Looking at the new version of the sway lock, it is far stronger than the original version I had....That being said, if you run a really stiff rear swaybar like the Genright then an Antirock up front is also a good choice.

I have never really seen the big hype about sway bars. Mine has been unlocked for over a year and I daily drive my jeep and never really had a problem with it. Only thing I notice is slow in corners.

Um...what?

How much work was that Genright rear swaybar?
