Thought this was a neat Jeep feature

I was playing around on Jeeps website building my own JK Wrangler unlimited when I noticed that for a cool $750 I could add electronic swaybar disconnect.

I thought that was pretty sweet. Just flip a switch and you're ready to go. No crawling under the Jeep to clean off the mounts and put the links back on.

I'm guessing the sway bar is split in the middle and it just has a center disconnect or something like that.

That is pretty cool...

You can also get a full locking electric rear diff for $750.

That comes on the Rubicons. They get both front and rear locking diffs.

sway bar disco's in low I believe.

Now...... it would be nice If i can flip a switch and all my tires air down to my specs
Flip another switch and air goes back in the tires after a trail run............. - now - that what I'm talking about....

The cool thing is you can get those features on the Non-Rubi JK's last I looked. (just no 4:1 low x-fer case)

I've seen them for TJ's & JK's.

Yeah, you can get the electronically locking rear diff in any JK for $750. Same with the electronic sway bar disconnects. They still offer the trac-loc for $295. The rear D35 is (thankfully) gone, but you have to get a Rubi to get the D44 front with an electric locker instead of the open D30. The optional tires on the X (standard on the Sahara) are 32", as well.

( I took my wife in today for her new Town & Country, and I got to admit that the idea of a JK has my wheels turning now that my kids are out of car seats...)

Sounds like a fair trade

Fair? It's not often that you actually get to stick it to a car dealer... :shock:

Those Anti-Rock's are awesome.I have one that will be going on the front of my KJ when I do my SFA swap.No need to disco with those,they are made for rock crawling,and are adjustable for a stiffer rate or softer rate.

You can buy a air operated disconnects,includes a new swap bar,but needs air to operate.

They have CTIS(Central Tir Inflation System) kits out there,seen them for about $3000.You get a seperate switch for each tire with a seperate air pressure gauge,but the switches can be all toggled at the same time for ease of airing down/up on the go.Now if you had a H1 they have kits for them and could be ordered with a CTIS system already installed,they are slick,have installed some kits on military HMMWV.

I knew a guy that had an H1 with the CTIS system. It was totally cool!
