I have both my front and rear swaybars off right now and i personally think it is safer for me because it forces me to slow down and that is something i really need, as for being unsafe it is only unsafe if the driver is unsafe. I gain noticable flex without the sway bars on, I have the 3in Toytec also and that makes the sway bars pretty stretched...

Nice find. I will be disconnecting my bars when offroad. Now I need to devise a quick/easy/inexpensive way to do it.

After I did my SS lift, i got the fork lift and measured the rear flex with the sway bars connected and disconnected. There was NO difference in flex with them disconnected number wise, but off road I assume it will make suspension movement "easier" with less force working against the susp travel. I didnt get a chance to do the front, but with IFS and the thick sway bar, it will probably make a difference.

With my 92 Toy p/u (IFS) I would disconnect one side of the front bar and it made a good improvment off road
