Anybody have any ideas on what aftermarket quick disconnects are good to go with? I was running the JKS ones for that last year, literally disconnected them 2 times, kept up greasing them and then just had one of them strip and pull in half, now useless. I was on a light trail, no rock crawling . Ideas?

Metal cloak makes a nice set. I also used the rough country ones before. Although this time I decided to go with Antirock and have been pretty happy with the purchase so far.

For the time being i just welded my jks threaded part to the sleeve, should hold fine for now. They did not hold up well, paint mostly off of them after one northern winter as well

I was hoping to find a set that didn't require any permanent mods to the truck - no cutting, drilling, chopping, hacksawing, etc.

I believe the synergy or teraflex ones do not require that.

Good to hear there may be options that way. I'm the sort that if I ever traded there's some stuff I'd strip back off.......... some options just don't increase resale or trade value.

Wrenches are my go to when the rubicon unit is on the fritz, happens more that I'd like. But wrenches/ratchet get it done quick with some zip ties to hold the link out of the way.

That said the anti-rock always seems to captivate me in terms of how it "do" (damn you zFrank) and I often think perhaps it's the real solution. But then I clean out the factory unit, regrease it and forget about the problem for a while.

The Teraflex disconnects suck. Had them on my JL and JT both. Too long for a minimally lifted Jeep and caused a lot of noise.

ROCK KRAWLER GEN 2 quick disconnects. These quick disconnects have an angle that help with the offset on the sway bar and bracket. Picture is on my rig.
