Hi all, my wife and I just joined Baystate Jeepers. I bought my first Jeep a couple of weeks ago. It's a 2017 Wrangler Unlimited Willy. I believe it is all stock and is my daily ride to and from work. I have 32" tires and would like to do some light off roading with it this summer. We did a little off-roading when we were young (now 49). Since we are new to a Jeep, we are not sure which quick disconnect sway bars we should choose for the front, any input would be appreciated. We are open to other modifications and thinking of getting an air compressor. We are trying to get the Jeep ready for April to attend the Jeep 101 class.
We are looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing your Jeeps, at the Jeep 101.

Hey Carl welcome. Although having your front sway bar will allow for better articulation, it wont be necessary for the 101 ( other runs however it will be very useful) . I'd say just come as you are and look at some of the other Jeeps that have them and ask questions. Factory ones can be disconnected with minimal effort usually. Don't stress and rush to modify anything. Take your time and do it right .
Chrome? Never heard of it.

Welcome to the group, and a great group you chose!
Def sign up for the 101, its coming up quickly (Within about a month) and emails will go out for this. You can get a chance to learn about sway bars and see different ways to handle that situation. Also will get to see some other great Jeeps and how their owners have gone down the path to where they are. Looking forward to seeing you out there on the trails.
