Quick disco's need to be made yourself, mike has a couple write ups kicked round of what heim joints you need, etc. Smaxx makes rebuild able end links but I've seen more negative reviews than positives.

Here's one free pass...

The company is SuspensionMaxx. We contract it to Smaxx.

I don't know of any commercial vendors for disconnectable end links. I evaluated some by SMaxx and they didn't come to market. You can modify your own JK end links like I did. Or just remove the rear altogether.

Ok so how would you disconnect the rear completely while saving the parts to reconnect in the event of selling the vehicle. I don't want to think of losing my TB but don't want to cut anything off like I have read. Plus I might need to put it on for inspection (I hate Maine)..

Four bolts, two nuts, and it should be able to come off.
I DON'T care what my GMT360 was designed to do, I care about what it can do!

What part of Maine are you from? There is a shop in Sanford that I go to, they tend to over look mods within reason.

I'm in the Portland area, I haven't had any problems with the mods yet then again I have gotten it looked at since I put on the lift, tires, spacers, and now the exhaust so it will be interesting come May. I doubt there will be any issues though, if they do have an issue I'll just run it through a VIP they sticker about everything.
