There is a company that makes a cool sway bar 'disconnect'. It doesn't actually disconnect them but when 'engaged' allows the links to operate independently. https://www.apexdesignsusa.com/products ... disconnect
They are expensive. Mom bought me a set for my birthday. She told me to come up with something expensive because I saved her $4000 on a pool pump replacement and another $450 on ceiling fan installations.
They are not made for our jeeps. They are made for JK's and JL's and so, as you would expect, they didn't just bolt on.
The main issue is the top bracket has a stud. It's so long that installed it would have hit the frame. Mounting it with the stud out was no good either. There really isn't much clearance between the sway bar and frame on our jeeps.
My first inclination was to find a sway bar a bit wider than our stock. The problem is there is very little information on sway bar sizes. Some folks measured JK sway bars for me, they were not wide enough. I searched around and didn't find anything that would work.
My second inclination was to over engineer a solution. This is something I do. Mom said go with your strengths.
I found some tie rod ends for various polaris rigs. I even ordered them but found out the hole was too small.

Then it hit me. The current links have a couple of hiem joints. They are pretty beefy.
What if I just attach one to the sway bar and then put the stud from the new sway bar link through it?
It was still a tight fit so I ordered some 1/2" cap bolts and came up with this:
The hiem joint stuck out far enough that I could mount the new links to it and the way the mounting works, they end up almost where the original links were. On my modified rig there are not issues with clearance.
It is pretty straight. I don't think I will have issues with binding.
I didn't get to test drive it today. I will tomorrow. I do a lot of wheeling and disconnecting the sway bar was a PITA. Okay, actually RECONNECTING the sway bar was a PITA. So often times I didn't bother. Now I can just turn the knobs and be done with it. I'll post up after I take it off road again.
