IMMEDIATELY After watching this video I checked locally for a rubi sway bar disco setup and found one w the EVO manual disconnect already installed on it for $150….. sweet!! Thanks for the great info!!!
Amazing!! I would never have guessed that JK parts would fit on a JL. Also the EVO manual sway bar release knob is great! Way to go Mel. Thanks for sharing.
Having just bought a gently used Glad and diving into channels on Jeep tech I have to say your vids are top notch. Your presentation, cadence, video quality and instruction are out-flipping-standing. Masterful teaching. Thanks for great work, sir.
Here I go again, learning something new as a new Jeep owner from Eddie that has me going, add that to the list of things I need to do to my Willys. Thanks guys love your install videos.
That is a great solution for the disconnect. I've the JKS ones and they so work great. But as to 'used' part upgrades, thete are great things to be had dirt cheap. I picked up a brand new Rubicon Recon suspension for $100 - the guy had a mopar lift put on his as soon as it arrived at the dealership. It gave me a 2.5" lift on my 2 door sport s. $60 for the longer control arms and I still spent less than $200 for a nice upgrade.
Thank you Eddie for another great video, watched this 5 months ago and it took me this long to find a reasonably priced electronic sway bar. Your video sold them out everywhere for a reasonable price :) I tried the Terraflex disconnects, worked well, and others, just to much jingle jangling. Installed this morning and wonderful silence.
I would never argue that a upgraded rubicon is a better than stock jeep, but I never made the jump and always get base sports and have no issues. I will say , MT tires or something similar is a huge upgrade over the HT/AT stock tires. But... I am still running my cheapies on my jl and keep up with everyone other than in the bogs. My point, stock sport is sooooo good anyhow so this channel is my jam.
I just put in my order for a 392 Rubicon, I can honestly say I will not miss laying in the dirt to pull pins. I only have to wait 4 - 6 months for it to be built and delivered. 😝
well done. That hiccup scared me for a minute, but I knew if anyone could figure it out that you could. The only Sport JL with a Rubicon disconnect. I am in awe
Awesome project, I love the efficiency and creativity used here. That distinct sound heard when using the EVO release was so satisfying! My "quick swaybar disconnect" is my Milwaukee ratchet and a couple turns of the steering wheel, just requires a charged battery! Not the worst setup, at least until I configure something better... as usual, terrific video from Eddie!
I always wondered where one would stick a hand under (or over?) the bumper to screw / unscrew the knob. Great video, very much looking forward to part 2.
Funny, I saw one for sale recently that no longer worked and I wondered why the heck someone would buy one. Now I know! Now to keep and eye out for one going forward...thanks for the tip!
@@wayalife nice. Funny I just saw someone ask about one of these for sale on the gladiator forum. He must have seen this video…😂 Cause that’s what I just did. 😉
@@wayalife Love watching the vid. Main reason for staying close to stock is this is my daily and hunting rig. And as my favorite hunting partner does not like being bounced around there's not point in building a crawler, but I want it tough enough not to leave me stranded because something simple broake.
My rubi's e-sway bar disconnect burnt up when I "parked" it in the water over night. Used ones here in Canada are upwards of $2000. This knob from evo is going to save me some money 😂😂
I just want to add that for my Sahara 4XE, I found a good deal on used 2021 JL Rubicon Sway bar and I didn't have to clearance the Sway bar mechanism mount! If you have a JL, try to get a JL used Sway bar and you should be good to go! BTW soo much better that any other Sway bar disconnect1!
Thanks for referring me to this video. Unfortunately my 2016 JK will have to remain unchanged...I have neither your expert skills nor the shop like yours. But, nice to know there is a fix. Keep up the good work that you are doing.
@@wayalifeA buddy and I just finished installing a BDS 2 inch lift kit today (your 3 inch lift kit how-to actually helped a little). Minor “trimming” was involved… lol that sucked. But I agree, this video is totally doable for a newbie - way easier than a lift kit. I had zero experience in suspensions of any kind before starting on the lift kit yesterday and my buddy had a little experience in suspensions, but not lifts.
Seriously you need to contact the SPEED network and get your own TV show....You are that good. I watch a lot of Garage repair shows on cable tv and I am convinced you have a calling. Secondly why don't you have a million subscribers?
I assume those were with working motors? As mentioned in the video, the motor on the one I bought was not working. I actually found another at the same time as I found this one for $180. They are out there.
@@wayalife absolutely! I was referring to the manual “quick” disconnects that came with my lift kit (first lift, first Jeep - I’m a rookie) that’s why this video is so awesome! Thanks!
I considered that route but when I happened across the Apex Autolynx being mentioned in Jan of ‘21, I was one of the first to get them installed. Disconnect with the turn of a knob on the top of the end links and reconnect within 15secs and drive. For $400, they’re my favorite mod. No crawling in the dirt and no electric to run. They just replace your end links. Yeah, I’m a fanboy now. lol
LOL - as I state in the video, there are LOTS of aftermarket options available. For our purposes, we're trying to keep Pippi as stock as possible and that any mods we do make are done with budget in mind. $140 for a factory swaybar disco is that and we love it. Of course, with just a little more money, I can make it work off the air compressor I do plan on installing and it would work with a push of a button too.
@@wayalife Oh I hear you. Keep the ideas coming! What you did here was great. When I was looking into it, I had no idea a JK sway bar disconnect would work. The few used JL units online were $400 on up. I’d have gone the Evo mod, like you, so a bit more $ to get that in there too. The Autolynx just peaked my curiosity and they ended up being the flashiest pieces on my Jeep. For the most part, I like to keep mine modded with stock parts too. That way, if I break a part far from home…they’re usually easier to come by to get going again. Thanks for sharing this idea with the community. 👍🏼
I subscribed to your channel in 2019 when I was about to buy my first car, a Jeep wrangler. I thought that I could find helpful information. Now that you are trying to modify your JL, I find the channel even more interesting, especially because my JL is also a 2-door Sport (but mine is Sport-S) and because I don't want to modify my car that much. Thanks for doing this. Let me ask you something, in all the videos you mention the torque for all the bolts you are going to tighten. Where I could find that information?
Glad that we can be of help to you and your 2-door Sport! We have torque specs for the JL listed on our forum www.wayalife.com/threads/torque-specs-jl-wrangler-reference-guide.52799/
Awesome video as always and a great topic - disconnects for non-Rubicons like my Jeep 😋 . EVO has a pneumatic version of the no-limits as well. Get the ACM on Pippy!
Nice 2 post lift! Wish I had one. 🤭 Haha. Years I've kept my burnt out Rubicon sawy bar to get the turn screw disconnect. Til now, I haven't got around to getting one 😞let's see, for around 9 years now. I been on anti rock. Not the greatest honestly
LOL - The antirock is nice, kind of a jack of all trades but a master of none. Good thing you kept your sway bar. I would definitely put it to use again 😎
If you look at it carefully, it's essentially an exhaust hanger. There is a rubber sling that helps to keep the motor from rotating. In other words, there is NO load.
Amazing video again :-) I got 0 mechanical skills whats so ever just the basic checking oil and changing a spare tire lol. My question is how do you know the torque numbers for these bolts? if so how do you get them? I'm just curious on that :-) thanks
I got the specs from a factory service manual but I also have them listed on my forum here: www.wayalife.com/threads/torque-specs-jl-wrangler-reference-guide.52799/
You’re very good about telling us the torques to set everything to. How do we go about finding this info for other jeep projects we may be doing? Thanks!
I would encourage you to spend some time on my forum as I have a ton of great information just like what you're looking for there including torque specs www.wayalife.com/threads/torque-specs-jl-wrangler-reference-guide.52799/
Thanks for your videos! Any chance we might see one of you doing a Rubicon “take off” suspension upgrade? I have this same Jeep in a 4 door and want to keep it “stockish” as well b/c it’s my daily driver. Thanks again!
@@wayalife I think many would enjoy that. Rubicon takeoff suspension is one of the most budget friendly ways to get a true suspension “lift” . Tempted to do it myself once it’s time to replace tires
Yes, I have seen it and as I point out in this video, there are LOTS of options available out there. Of course, the point of this video is to show what my personal favorite solution is and why.
well, as you said, they're very pricey. This solution is not and in my personal opinion, still a better option. Of all the solutions I've tested over the last 20 some years, it's what I prefer most and still run on my JK.
Awesome video once again! 👏. I just recently discovered the apex autoLYNX. They’re pricey but cheaper then antirock. They’re worth looking at! Pretty awesome design
Yup, there are lots of aftermarket options out there but as I state in the video, the point of Pippi is to keep her as stock as possible and that any mods we did do, would be done on a budget. As in, spending more than $150 wasn't something we are interested in.
LOL - I'm embarrassed that you would call me a "star" especially being that I am anything but. That said, I've done a lot of things over the years but I know what I know about Jeeps because I have worked on them about 25 of them.
Unfortunately, they are not exactly the same. There are subtle differences that make it so you can only install a JK one on a JL but not the other way around.
Much cheaper swaybar fix than my G2 swaybar disconnect! Still, I would’ve been stuck with fitting it into place since I don’t have the vise or grinder.
Hmm, here's a sway bar disconnect question. I recently picked up a set of JKS Quicker Disconnects to put on my stock JK. The install should be no issue, but I have heard reports that stock drivers might suffer popped tires when using them. Some events have happened because of the sway bar being lifted out of the way. For that, it is recommended to keep the sway bar horizontal. But there are also reports of the studs the links fit over popping tires. Any ideas of ways to prevent that, or might your trick with the steering stops for rubbing tires help?
If you run big tires on wheels with too much back spacing like you really shouldn't, yeah, your sidewalls WILL catch on the storage studs and can cause a failure.
As you see in this video, the disconnect I installed was from a JK and a bit of modification was necessary to make it work. A JL and a Gladiator are exactly the same up front.
IMMEDIATELY After watching this video I checked locally for a rubi sway bar disco setup and found one w the EVO manual disconnect already installed on it for $150….. sweet!! Thanks for the great info!!!

This is sick. I plan on buying one too, I have a 21' Sahara you think a JK one like this would bolt right up?
As I show in the video, a JK sway bar WILL require a bit of clearancing on the motor hanger but otherwise, yes, it will bolt up.
Is there a video anywhere where you do a tour of all the Jeeps you own? That Willy’s has got me interested!
You can kind of see what you're looking for here czcams.com/video/UOMR_li8kf0/video.html
Where can I find all the torque limits for the jeep bolts?
What did you do before becoming a CZcams star? You are very handy in tools!
LOL - I'm embarrassed that you would call me a "star" especially being that I am anything but. That said, I've done a lot of things over the years but I know what I know about Jeeps because I have worked on them about 25 of them.
That Jeep is flexy
That's a great idea. Great instruction video too. Are the two sway bars exactly the same width? Does anyone have the width measurement available?
Unfortunately, they are not exactly the same. There are subtle differences that make it so you can only install a JK one on a JL but not the other way around.
@@wayalife Thanks! Hey do you know how wide they are from linkage mount to linkage mount?
@@olliehopnoodle4628they are the same as a standard stock one.
Much cheaper swaybar fix than my G2 swaybar disconnect! Still, I would’ve been stuck with fitting it into place since I don’t have the vise or grinder.
Yup, you would need at the very least, a grinder to make this work on a JL. On a JK, you would not.
Really nice, I search this part too, I'm living in Quebec and I don't find it, someone can help me?
Hmm, here's a sway bar disconnect question. I recently picked up a set of JKS Quicker Disconnects to put on my stock JK. The install should be no issue, but I have heard reports that stock drivers might suffer popped tires when using them. Some events have happened because of the sway bar being lifted out of the way. For that, it is recommended to keep the sway bar horizontal. But there are also reports of the studs the links fit over popping tires. Any ideas of ways to prevent that, or might your trick with the steering stops for rubbing tires help?
If you run big tires on wheels with too much back spacing like you really shouldn't, yeah, your sidewalls WILL catch on the storage studs and can cause a failure.
Awesome video! My question is will a JK disco fit on my 22 Willys Gladiator? Im finding some JK disconnects in my area for sale but not newer JL's.
As you see in this video, the disconnect I installed was from a JK and a bit of modification was necessary to make it work. A JL and a Gladiator are exactly the same up front.
@wayalife thanks!! Your modification didn't look too hard to do, I'm gonna go for it. Thanks again for all you do, and show us!
