1. A vehicle stabilizer comprising:
first and second side-bars;
a housing fixed to the first side-bar, the housing defining at least two axial grooves;
a tulip fixed to the second side-bar, the tulip defining at least two open-ended axial slots;
a nut configured to move axially within the housing via an actuator between a first connected position and a second disconnected position, the nut having at least two pins, each one of the at least two pins corresponding with one of the at least two axial grooves; and,
in the first connected position, each one of the at least two pins extend into one of the at least two open-ended axial slots to selectively torsionally couple the housing to the tulip so that the first side-bar is torsionally coupled to the second side-bar; and
in the second disconnected position, each one of the at least two pins is moved out of the one of the at least two open-ended axial slots so that the first side-bar is torsionally uncoupled from the second side-bar.
