Help tuning my REAR suspension / sway bar rate?
Sorry for the long post. But I'm trying to provide enough info hoping some of the awesome / knowledgeable members here can help me out.
Here's my situation:
2015 Wrangler Unlimited (Sport). Has the Max Tow package. 3.5" Metalcloak GC w/ 6pak shocks (read - only need 1" bumpstop).
Problem & Observation:
It seems to be a little tipsier than I would expect in off-camber situations. I took it to MC's CTI trailer yesterday (lifts Front Right and Rear Left wheels at same time to measure "flex" kind of like an RTI ramp). When doing this, the rear driver's side had probably 4"+ left before it would hit the bumpstop when the rear passenger side started lifting off the ground. At first looked like the brake line bracket was in the way, but after moving it a bit, the tech there said it looked like it was being limited only by the thick sway bar.
So I did some research and it appears there are 2 different sway bars for JKs. Mine is 7/8" diameter, while I have seen others with Sports say theirs is a 3/4" diameter. These parts appear to be like the springs, in that they get put on whatever vehicle whether or not it is a Rubicon / Sport / Etc I think?
w/ Standard Suspension 68067125AA *
w/ Performance Suspension 68067126AA *
Questions:
1. Do you think the Standard Suspension one is 3/4", and I have the "Performance" 7/8" because of my Max Tow package?
2. Should I try to change mine out for the 3/4" one?
3. Am I just way off base in any way? Is the stiffer sway bar actually keeping me more stable off-camber? Should I ignore what I saw on the CTI trailer / ramp that shows that I should be flexing more? Are the springs just too stiff to play nicely with that sway bar?
Thanks in advance.
