For a company that pretty much makes the best shocks on the face of the planet, I'm always surprised at how their Jeeps tend to be on the modest side of things. The is their all new JL Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited that they brought out to the 2018 SEMA Show and with the exception of the blue/gray camo wrap, it really could pass off as just another JL. Of course, when you give it a look underneath, you'd see that it's riding on King Shocks, running air bumps and sporting some kind of suspension sway bar links. Outside of that, it was running a low profile EVO roof rack, EVO tire carrier and EVO sliders but that's about it.

A tasteful, functional rig...how did it end up in SEMA?...I'd like to see those sway bar links flexed...
 
Now that I saw the rig on the Wayalife video on Youtube, I'm wondering how many organs I need to sell to setup all of those goodies on my JK :)
 
The sway bar links must be carrying over from the SXS world, fairly common aftermarket upgrade on UTV's.

Here is what a different brand says about them for the Polaris RZR:

No matter what rear shock you are running on your SXS we can improve your driving experience with a set of “xxxxx Links”. These units replace the standard fixed rear sway bar link and provide a smoother initial ride over rough and uneven terrain regardless of vehicle speed. They increase rear wheel and vehicle articulation while still providing a confident feeling when cornering. With 2.0″ of dampened action per side your rear shocks will be able to act independently until the xxxxxx Link has collapsed to act like a rigid link under heavy loads and when cornering. You get the best of both worlds with these links, a more independent shock action when your vehicle is level or nearly level and a solid support under heavy lean loads, turning and when needing that cornering stability and increased corner traction.
