Removed my sway bar, took WAY longer than i thought, there was some sawzalling done. Needless to say it's not going back on EVER. I drove around didn't really notice much of a difference. But i took it off road and WOW so much better! Almost floats over the rocks and stuff.

It took you over 1000 posts to get to this mod?



Just giving you a hard time

IFS does ride waaaay better offroad without the swaybar. I messed around with designing various quick-disco kits but never got anything to work as well as I wanted, so it's just staying off!

I've always wanted to remove this but from what i've read people were saying the ride is TERRIBLE once you remove it and you can only take turns at 5 mph blah blah blah… so i never did it. I'm glad i removed it now. It doesn't even drive that differently. It had poor handling before and it still does lol.

As bad as the bushings and bolts look, the sway bar probably wasn`t doing much anyway.

i agree with MyYota...

i don't know if i want to take mine off my lifted 2nd gen lmao...might be a LITTLE BIT too tippy

I'm not sure why you posted this in your build thread AND posted a brand new thread about it.

Do you need attention that badly?

thats what i figured lol

Yeah idk about the 2nd gens

People doing a search for sway bar aren't gonna look through 4379580 pages of my build thread so they will see this and find an answer to their questions.

iamsuperbleeder

looks like it put up a fight, lol

how did you bend the one brace like that?

Or, they can look through the tens of hundreds of threads that are already posted about this subject...

Nice repost, noob

EVERYTHING on her puts up a fight! Rusty bolts are no fun lol My BFH took care of that brace.

I still have a sway bar with my straight axle and the truck currently rides horrible. I know it could be a combination of things but do you think the sway bar + warn out bushing and hardware would contribute to ˟˟˟˟ty ride?

Well i'll need some more info i'm not sure what you mean by "horrible". Do you mean a lot of body roll, or does it ride really rough like you can feel every bump? Gotta tell me more.

richf

I would say bumpy. Not to worried about the body roll.

Swimmerboy2112

Well the sway bar deals primarily with body roll but remove it and see if that helps. As you said you aren't worried about body roll might as well remove it and give yourself some more off road capability lol

BRUTAL! lol i get my swaybar on and off in about 10 minutes... glad you did it, sounded like you were afraid in that other thread. it's not so scary....just makes playing jello in my back seat more fun!!

theres really no difference in removing the sway bar on a 2nd gen than other vehicles. Your 2nd gen still has a rear sway bar. I have mine off my 4runner and it does great.

toyota4x4907

I have both off on my 2nd gen. I didnt take them off, one of the P.O.s did, but its not TOO bad. Just need to know how to drive
I've been thinking about getting a rear one because everyone that rides in it complain about the body roll.

Let them moan, its YOUR vehicle!

yoder519

you took off your sway bar!!!! your gonna die. just like if you have a body lift, you will die. hahaha

i took mine off a few weeks back. theres no puttin it back on either. teh bolts broke off int he frame rails. i like it better without IMO. and makes it flex a ton better. removin your swaybar makes the goody too sho IFS spread her legs a little better. did you jerk your steering wheel back in forth real hard yet? dont do it fast, but like 15MPH and under. then youll feel the rollage.
