So, I just bought this 96 XJ Classic the other day and it had major death wobble. I knew the shocks needed replaced, but today while I was under it doing my inspection I found what you see circled here below. Can someone tell me what this is that needs replaced. I looked for a control arm, but it doesnt come with this attachment that is broken. Thanks for the help!

 

Sway bar endlink

 

Severed swaybar links.

 

So, If I buy a new sway bar will it come with this end link, or will I have to buy that separate?

 

wow. If you plan on lifting your jeep then now would be a good time to get some swap bar disconnects.

 

The endlink is welded on so it will come with it.

 

Killer I would junkyard those parts and don't waste a bunch on a new swaybar and the associated hardware for it like end links and bushings.

 

Ditch the swaybar

 

LOL, it scared the crap out of me when driving it home the other night. I was cruising down the highway and hit a bump, and thought the wheels were going to come off!

If it wasnt a DD that I had to drive on the highway every day I would do it.

 

Blue is right. The JY is a great place for parts. Im there always every other day. You will save lots of money.

 

Can I pull a sway bar off of any 4x4 XJ and it will fit on this?

 

im pretty sure there all the same.

 

i would look at getting "sway bar disconects" if you ever plan on wheeling the jeep if not a simple JY replacment would work. dont ditch them on a stock set up the stock spring rate is way to soft and would be very uncomforatble in turns! I dont have my sway bars, but I also have RE5.5" coils which are much stiffer than the stockers

 

Stick with 92-96 to be safe they are all about the same but the diameter changed with the different years.

 

They are welded on? Did they start doing that in '96?
