to sway or not to sway

I found a marked diffrence with sway bars removed.

They are there for a purpose. Get new rubbers...lol

ps did you have you swaybar in in that rig photo?

sway bar rubbers are only about $20 for the whole lot and are easily replaced. Take your sway bar off and you may as well cancel your insurance policy!

I'd prob leave the front on, but would have no dramas in removing the rear one.

When my bushes split on the front sway bar on my surf I just used black sikaflex, still going strong! I just took the bushes out and used the old bits as the base and just built them up with the tar, they look and feel like new ones! :-) Prob stronger too!

Hi B. B.
Mate, pull em both off and leave em off, I notice you have a 3" lift which means you have firmer springs already, the sway bars won't be doing much at all on top of what the springs are already doing, you will find a little more body roll but will get used to it very quickly, I have 3" dobinsons with 50mm body block and haven't run sway bars since I got it, I also hate slowing down for corners, and it hasn't bothered me yet.
In saying all that, you may want to put them back on when you load it up to go on a big trip, ie. tents, tables, chairs, bbq plates etc. on the roof rack and so on, as it will most likely feel like the Queen Mary. Roachie left his off even when loaded, I put mine back on, just depends on how much body roll you feel comfortable with I guess.
My advice is take them both off, only takes a couple of minutes, and try it for yourself, if you're happy with it, leave them off.
One big advantage to not having them on is you'll get HEAPS more wheel travel when doing the stuff in your rig pic.

Arvo all thanks for the input.....thought about insurance side of things.....but as was said ...its like a boat into corners......so think i may replace them .after all there's a reason there put on in da factory i suppose......and with the lift i need all the stability i can get on long sweepers
