Title: Addco WJ rear anti roll bar
Post by: gregwho on April 08, 2015, 06:09:53 PM
I've fitted the uprated rear anti sway bar from addco (bought from US) to my WJ and first of all I have to say it totally changes the feel of the Jeep and has stopped most of the body roll, so brilliant upgrade and we'll worth the money.

I do have one issue with it though where the new bar is knocking against the lower suspension cup, and wondered if either anyone else has fitted the same bar and had that issue (and fixed it!), or if anyone can knows if there's a way of moving the bar so that it doesn't make contact with the body?

Is your WG lifted? If so you may need longer drop links for the bar

Its not lifted yet...although I am looking around for a replacement set of springs and shocks which I think will end up with 1.5-2" of lift in the end.  I wonder if its worth getting some longer drop links anyway, as that makes a world of sense as a way to stop it knocking.  Any recommendations where to get longer links from or just a Google/ebay check?
