Electric Lockers and Sway Bar Disconnects
Just curious if the TJs ever had the factory electric lockers and sway bar disconnects, or if that only became an option on the JK?

Looking to the future for my next Jeep to add to the stable

Thank you for the information

I wouldn't base the decision on those two items. Reality is that both items are more prone to breaking or not functioning correctly. There are many stories of e-disco's not reconnecting after wheeling. And a handful of stories of the e-lockers not functioning. And fixing them is more difficult.

IMHO the best method is still the old fashioned tried & true Quick Disco's and ARB or OX lockers

IMO, keeping your antiswaybar connected is the best route . I use a dual rate antisway bar and it is one of the best upgrades I've made to the Jeep.

For those interested, I would keep an eye out for Savvy's dual rate bar .
