Here’s a killer new product from Skyjacker. The RockLock Sway Bar Disconnect System is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in sway bars since quick disconnect systems were introduced.

The RockLock system uses an adjustable locking mechanism that looks and functions a lot like a hub. When you’re on the trail, simply unlock the hub for zero resistance from the swaybar. Back on the street, another twist of the hub locks the sway bar into place with three optional setting to suit your driving preference.

Skyjacker’s RockLock fits 97-06 Jeep Wranglers (TJ) and 04-06 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (TJ). The kit takes approximately 4 hours to install and comes with all the necessary hardware. A couple of things to keep in mind: You’ll have to trim the stock bumper to provide clearance for the hub. Also, vehicles with Skyjacker’s adjustable front track bar may need a new track bar relocation bracket.

Overall, this seems like a great solution for hassle-free sway bar disconnect. You can pick up the RockLock at a variety of online dealers for around $400.

If you haven’t heard of these guys, you probably will soon. Gen-Right Off Road is a new-ish company started in February of 2006 in Simi Valley, California. A quick look around their website and you can tell these guys have really put a lot of thought into their products.

The bulk of their product offerings consist of body armor, skid plates and exterior roll cages, but they also offer link-based suspension kits, gas tanks, shock mount kits, engine pulleys and some other miscellaneous stuff.

One of the products I was really impressed with is the GenRight XO Bar system. The XO Bar is essentially an exterior roll bar for your Jeep consisting of three bars that mount to “solid” points on the body. The cool part about this system is it’s removable. So if you don’t want that gnarly look when you’re driving your rig on the street, you can remove the cage in a few minutes with just an allen wrench.

The XO Bar is available for YJ’s and CJ’s and will cost you $499 plus shipping.
