XRock Sway Bar System - Antirock for XJs
The XRock mount was then positioned against the front crossmember and held in place using the lower steering-box bolt on the driver side of the vehicle.
The bracket on the passenger side secures to existing holes in the unibody that must be drilled out to accommodate the new hardware. The upper bracket mount is drilled out to 1/2 inch and uses a provided 1/2-inch bolt for attachment.
The lower bracket mounts on both sides of the vehicle use 3/8-inch bolts for attachment. The unibody was drilled to this size using the XRock mounting bracket as a guide.
The provided hardware was then used to bolt the XRock in place on the unibody.
The Antirock arms were matched to each side of the torsion bar and secured in place using the provided hardware.
XRock is designed to fit Cherokees and Comanches with 3 to 4 inches of lift. The Comanche we installed the kit on had slightly more lift, so we needed to reposition the factory lower sway-bar mounts.
The Heim-joint-equipped sway-bar links were secured between the sway-bar arms and the lower sway-bar link mounts.
The links were then adjusted to proper length, and the set nut was tightened.
With the XRock system in place, we adjusted the sway-bar characteristics - making it stiffer or softer - to meet the needs of the vehicle's suspension. This is achieved by moving the upper Heim-joint link forward or rearward on the sway-bar arm.
