The swaybar - more accurately referred to as the "anti-swaybar" - helps stabilize the vehicle's body in relation
to the suspension. It is attached to both chassis rails and connected to the axle housing using swaybar end
links. The swaybar's spring steel construction allows it to function like a torsion bar, resisting vehicle body roll
during cornering.
On the road, the swaybar is critical to proper vehicle handling and control. Although virtually transparent to the
driver, make no mistake about the importance of this device to vehicle safety. Jeep engineers carefully design
swaybars to ensure the proper rate of resistance for each unique model.
Off-road, however, the swaybar counteracts the suspension's ability to function independently of the chassis,
thus preventing the tires from maintaining contact with uneven terrain. Unless equipped with a locking
differential, engine power is transferred to the tires without traction and the vehicle is unable to continue
forward progress.
