My front stabilizer end link broke last night. It was rusted and it snaped. I was woundering if this was safe to drive until i fix it.

 

I usually recommend removing the sway bar completely for an off road truck.....

Hey, I got your call today...just havent had a chance to call u back because Im at my "real" job right now!

 

thats cool, i just wanted to know if i can still drive it while being broken.
It drove fine last night just had a little more body roll when turning sharp

 

just dont drive like speed racer and you will be fine!

 

oh i won't its a truck not a race car

 

I haven't had mine on my DD for a few years now.

 

Nice, you got an "auto-disconnect".

 

Junk that thing I removed mine when I did my lift. After removing it my truck rode smoother on the road!

 

so i really don't need them and what about off road

 

Jay, is the lean mostly from the absence of the SB or is it partly due to the 4-6" overall lift. It does lean quite a bit, but it doesn't really feel tippy.

 

It allows for more flex/body roll. If you are not worried about on road, then there is nothing to worry about off road. If you want the best of both worlds, then get quick disconnects.

 

where can find quick disconnects for my 4runner

 

You can buy them from WabFab or you can make your own. Search it. You need something called a "spherical rod end", "Heim joint" or "spherical bearing" instead of the listed 7/16" rod end.

I cant find the article but it may even be in the YT article section. Post the link if you find it please.

Took mine off a year ago. Now I use the brackets as a flag holder at my house on holidays, the pipe pits perfect in the bushings!

 

lol nice Im gonna have to try that

 

huntnfreak.....I wouldnt worry about it...just throw the dang thing in the back of your garage and drive the truck for a while....

If you miss it for some reason then put it back on....


first thing i did when i got my truck was throw mine away

 

Take it off, drive it and see how it feels. You have a truck, not a sports car, so you shouldn't be taking corners at extreme speeds anyways. If you don't like the feel of the body roll, order up some quick-disco's from WabFab but I seriously doubt you'll really need them. Yeah my truck's body likes to roll a tad more but not enough for me to fear of rolling.

 

the link on the passenger side of mine is broke also, should i just take the whole thing off and leave the rear sway bar on or should i remove that to?

 

I think the concensus is that you can remove any sway bar as long as you dont drive like ricky bobby
