I've got them on my rig... top quality. Easy to use, 100% silent when on. Nuke is a very busy guy (had to give up NY TTORA he's so busy) so it might be though getting them. The only place to get them is direct from him. There are a few people who were playing with Nuke knock-offs... not sure where they stand though.

What's a quick disconnect sway bar? 
I'm assuming it's just like it sounds--a sway bar that can be disconnected quickly. 
Am I right? If so, what's the purpose of having these?
Sorry about such a dumb question.
Have fun.

With sway bar:
Left & Right sides flex together, the sway bar links them together.
Without sway bar:
Left & Right sides flex independently...making it a true IFS
There are mixed reviews as to how well this helps offroad. I tend to think that it does help (I'd like to get a set of the quick-discos, but have not done it yet).
The alternative to quick disconnects is to just undo the bolts when you are airing down your tires. Takes a lot more time, and you need tools. Quick disco = fast & tool-less.

Disconnecting the swaybars makes a world of difference off road. On my last outing I started with the bars connected and it beat me pretty bad. During a break I disconnected the bars and the ride was greatly improved and a LOT smoother off road.
I did not do anything where flex was a big issue, but the ride was like night and day. I was tippy as hell when I got back on the road, especially with the tires aired down, but off road it is the way to go.
No that I am all armored up I will play with the flex....
I have a set of Nukes. Very nice and very high quality.
