Mine has been disconnected since last year, when I swapped in the stiffer OME springs. I don't really notice any handling issues, aside from body lean in tight turns.

I'm going to be re-attaching it, though, in a few days. Provided I can get the remainders of the bolts out of their holes after I twisted the heads off three of them removing it.

Swaybar was one of the first things I did when I got my yota...Haven't been able to tell at all that it's gone.

I've taken it off several cars of mine, including the camaro in my sig..It's a little noticeable in the Camaro..The only car I've had that it made a huge difference in was my 89 5.0 Mustang. I had to basically stop and then turn, but I was also always driving around on slicks/skinnies with the suspension setup for drag racing.

X2 I have a ProComp 4" and ran a week w/o the swaybars. Made me extremely uncomfortable with that much body roll. The only reason they were off for a full week was due to not having the time to put them back on...
