sway bar , front and rear who's run without one.....



on the highway??



Heres the deal. going to Florida thursday after work , 1000 mile drive straight thru, and going wheeling at hardrock 4x4 with the 'Orlando jeep club' on saturday . I know i don't want the swaybars on for saturday. just wondering if anyone has driven long distances on the highway without swaybars ?

could i lose the just rear swaybar without any ill affects on the highway? i don't mind unbolting anything while in florida , but hand tools will be limited,,, as will my patience .

on the front ,, remove the entire sway bar or just the links


my jeep . 07 kj 2.5" lift 31" fierce attitude mt's , rear lockright

Ditch the rear completely. Leave the front on. Without disconnects its to much of a pita.. well for my lazy arse anyway.

I had my rear one off for a couple years. I only have it back on now because I tow a camper. Without the front one you will be all over the road. BTW, have fun at Hard Rock. I was out there yesterday.

I ran a Poll on this not too long ago and the results as seen here viewtopic.php?f=3&t=50406
Lean way towards removing it. I tossed mine with OME's out back the only time I notice a difference on road is when I'm on a hard turning Highway on Ramp.

Wish I could but I will be tied up then. Have fun on the "roller coaster". On the 3rd. try I made it about 3/4 of the way up. Then with brakes locked I started sliding back down again! I didn't have my tires aired down...should have! When you come up to the first hill you have to make a VERY sharp right turn. That turn is a big mud hole with water to the top of my bumper. Then over a large rock and up the hill. If it's dry there shouldn't be a problem.
