REVIEW: Apex autoLYNX anti-sway bar disconnects
Instead of your anti-sway bar being a solid bar, bolted top and bottom -- the Apex is a telescoping shaft inside of a cylinder. Picture a piston inside of a shock absorber (or Rubicon auto disconnect).
When locked, the shaft does not move. When unlocked (disconnected), the telescoping lower shaft allows the axle to articulate up/down freely.
Off-Road 101
Here is a brief explanation about how Desert Wranglers organizes our trail runs. If you have been on any of our runs, then most of this is not new. But if you are just getting started in off-roading, this will describe how we run things. Every trail run is arranged and led by a Trail Leader, specific to that particular run. Overseeing the Trail Leaders in general, but usually not present on the run, is our Trail Master.
