I pulled off the knob and reinstalled the actuator for a week in the sand dunes. Bar didn’t click at all and that confirms where the sound was coming from. I emailed Evo and they came back with a rather short but interesting reply, which is that my particular bar might just need less pressure...

Yeah for sure. Both before I installed the bar and since. I’m sure that when it’s engaged the force I apply with my hand is substantially less than the jeep rolling over even a small curve in the road. I suspect it’s not fully engaging too — but I don’t know how it would sound if it were broken.

I looked up Oracle lights and thought they were not cheap and wondered what you were talking about. Then I looked at KC lights and they are 4 times the price…but they are kind of what I want. A basic round light, DOT approved, and not 15 years fogged over with age.

I’m curious, what lights did you buy. I’ve been in the market but the market is inundated with Bluetooth and other stuff I don’t need.

I bought and mounted the knob, and now the sway bar clicks randomly, somewhat Unpredictably. Sometime when I turn, sometimes when I hit a small bump. It’s not reliable but it’s the only change I think could have the cause. The knob came with a washer and instructions to put the washer in the...

How does the road noise compare soft top vs hard top?

Oh that's a great price on links! Everything I'd seen online was $70/ea. Thank you! The expensive parts I was talking about are the mopar harness and switch for the factory style disconnect. The dealer installed style swaybar disconnect requires: - Sway bar ✅ - Wiring harness ~$140 shipped -...

Oh I wouldn't pay the dealer to do it, I'd do it myself. It's a few wire splices -- the parts are what's expensive.

Two projects, haha. Or two angles of the same project. This years upgrade is the sway bar, because last year was my first year and disconnecting the sway bar with wrenches takes an eternity when you have 3 hungry kids in the Jeep. I got the used sway bar but the end links are shot. So I need to...

Ok ok ok I’ll try the knob! Haha thank you

I looked at the hand crank option for the thing but man would I really like to have a button inside. Have you ever used any aftermarket stuff to get the disconnect to actuate?

That video actually insp two votes for the JKS is all I need. Thank you

I actually did get a used Rubi sway bar, which is what stated this. I put it on and the links are double the length of what I had, and the bushing(?) at the end is shot and needs to be replaced. So were my old ones. I haven’t decided what method I want to use to actuate the rubicon disconnect...

I have a stock JKU (sport) and I need new sway bar links. I’d like to get disconnects but there is little information on how long they should be. The stock unit was tiny — about 4-5” tops. But I see you can but very long or even adjustable replacements. I’m looking for speed — we hit the...

I bought some at O’Rielley Auto and installed it. I’m not at all confident that they’re meant for torque though. I could feel the threads stripping when pulling it tight with the hand ratchet. I don’t know the torque spec of that bolt but I bet it’s at least 30ftlb… I think I felt it slip closer...

Oh wow, really. That's way easier than I was thinking. Thank you!

I have a JKU Sport and I got a reasonable condition set of Rubi sliders on CL for free. I pulled off the plastic steps and bolted the sliders on just fine… except one spot where I stripped a bolt which sets into a mounting clip nut. I have extra bolts because the sliders came with a set… but...

Nice to see some other folks with a JKU on here.

I love that idea! No, my jeep pic was taken through a screen window because I didn’t want to let the moths in 😵‍💫

I’m a long time YouTube watcher but have gotten my jeep community from Reddit for too long. Our family hauler JK is our mild off road touring experience. It’s bone stock but I have no complaints.
