Checked the travel on the new skyjackers and noticed the rears drooped to the point that I had to make a bracket to drop the brake line as it was quite tight, and also let go of one of the cable ties on the abs line as that was tight too. Removed the rear sway bar altogether and placed the rear links to the front.

How does it drive on the road without the rear sway bar, does it roll around much more

Not to bad at all, my Suzuki xl7 I had before the jk, was a ifs with live rear and only had anti sway on the front, and didn't really roll. Without the front sway on on the jk, yeah, scary on the road, will see how it goes off road on the long weekend
