Finally doing TM econolift to the rear this weekend (front is already done) and getting rid of the remaining rough country parts. If I completely remove the rear sway will there be any ill effect. I do tow several times per month. |

Being on 07 kj, will I need extended brake lines when I ditch it or will the relocation brackets be fine. Sorry for all the questions. |

Keep the front. But none of my KJs have rear sway bars. I tow all the time. I have NEVER had sway in the rear. |

Great, I am making the brackets tomorrow based on a how to someone has posted. Sway bar will be gone saturday. Have you noticed better offroad articulation without it or is it just pretty much take it or leave sort of thing. ................now if I can just remember where I found that how to on the those extension brackets. |
