and got good and stuck. Found out that the sway-bar is a pretty stout tow-point. Time to fab some shackles for the front, 'cuz I really don't think I'll ever upgrade to OME's. Probably trade off for a TJ or JK eventually.

A CJ and a Toy couldn't budge me but they knocked me loose enough that I got backed up and took a different line out.

I didn't mean to go in the ruts! I had to punch it a little to get across a creekbed and when I came down on the other side, I just sort of slid into the ruts that the CJ in the pics above had made for me. I think I just need to take the time to disco my swaybar when I go wheelin' most of the time.

I've had my rear sway bar removed for about 6 months now, no issues. Up front the sway bar doesn't limit travel hardly at all.
