Installing Teraflex New Generation Quick Disconnects

Installation Instruction for XJ and ZJ

Part 1 | Part 2 | Securing the Disconnected Swaybar

Instructions are courtesy of Teraflex Manufacturing

Teraflex sway bar disconnects for the XJ and the ZJ come with the components listed above. Do not use these sway bar disconnects with only one side connected! Doing so will void any warranty claims.

Quick disconnects should be greased at least every 3,000 miles. It is also a good idea to grease after going through water and when the quick disconnects become difficult to move. Using a lubricant, like WD-40, on the stainless studs will make moving the disconnect arms much easier.

• Remove the stock sway bar links from the vehicle
• Identify the left and right quick disconnect. The bolt head will point away from the vehicle in it's final position.
• Place the round spacer ring on the threaded bracket bolt
• Once the assembly has been inserted into place, make sure that the grease zerk point downward, away from the vehicle.
• Add the flat washer and nut and secure

• Attach the sway bar connecting stud to the lower mount bracket by inserting the stainless steel stud in the hole vacated by the sway bar arm and secure with lock washer and nut.  Make sure the threaded portion of the stud points sway from the vehicle.

• Attach the sway bar arm by sliding the polyurethane bushing onto the lower stainless steel stud.  The use of a lubricant, such as WD-40, will help make this easier.
• Secure the quick disconnect by placing the washer on the side opposite the bolt and insert the pin into the stud

The photo on the right illustrates how the front axle will shift towards the drivers side when the suspension is fully extended by a hoist.  You may wish to connect the components with the vehicle on the ground.
