Give me ORO's contact info. My new frame will be in around Christmas, and motor mount kit is on the way now, so that whole process should take a week or so. I can either buy this thing now, or after the jeep is on the road and do a comparison. However, it sounds if you guys know for sure I'll be happy, so might as well get it out of the way and purchase it now. Contact info PLEASE! Thanks alot, I'll be posting on this frame off build, so lots of pictures to come.

Get your Jeep build up first, then get the Swaylock. You'll need a couple measurements to get the right length links.
http://www.offroadonly.com/ Call and ask for Steve. My previous offer stands for the "1 day warranty". If you don't like it, PM me.

I hate to shell out $500 clams on a product I will not notice any difference on the road.

i have the swayloc and it is the best $500-600 you will spend on your rig. I have a 6" lift and 35" tires and my jeep will take corners at speeds most cars wont try. If the DC guy doesnt recommend it then my guess is he's never driven one so equipped.

I don't think anyone has mentioned the Skyjacker sway bar. I'm a little confused about it. Descriptions I read about it say it has 3 settings, plus an unlock. Why would you want this, it sounds like the worst of both worlds, handling like an antirock on road, and completely disconnected off-road. (Unless you left it connected it seems like it would be just like a antirock.)

Because the rate of the skyjacker bar is too stiff, it's more like an on road sway bar with a fancy overpriced disconnect.

Bingo.

The Skyjacker and Teraflex S/T swaybar systems are pretty much the same thing in how they operate and function. The use a stiff street-type swaybar and have a knob of sorts that is used to disengage one arm so that it effectively acts as quick disconnect setup on the trail. . . lot of articulation, no body control, no suspension balancing, etc.

Its one reason I say either get the quick disco's (~$100) or go right for either the Anti-rock (~$280) or the SwayLOC ($500 or $600).

Don't waste $300 on the Teraflex / Skyjacker systems.
