I'll have more flex and it'll rock around easier?

How easy are they to remove

 

Yeah... You'll have more flex. They are simple to remove. I'd start by taking off the front and trying it out. My runner is pretty squirrely without my rear.

 

alright thanks

 

x2 - (well, squirrely without front AND rear)

 

the front is easy to remove takes about 20 min at the most. you wont miss it

 

Easy if its not rusted into place Mine had to be torched out.

Leave the rear in, with your top heavy runner you need it.

x2, they are tippy without the rear SB. They're a lot of weight higher up.

you tipped it over? when did you do that?

 

In his neighboorhood Avoiding a dog I think

 

Yep, that's the story and I'm sticking to it.

But like, if a dog had run out into the road, it could have tipped where it might not have if the rear SB was on at the time. With the rear coil lift, soft (ohh soo soft) shocks and no SB, it was pretty tippy. I'm glad its back on there. Furthermore, the front flexes better with the rear swaybar on. The rear SB causes the front suspension to flex.

Its really easy to build disconnects for the front. I have them, it cost about $40 to make, took about an hour and they're way beefier than the stock endlinks.





2nd Gen Sway Bar Quick Disconnects

 

i think most tell you not to remove the rear sway bar anyways...the rear will flex too much for the ifs to handle and makes for even worse off road manuverability. i tryed to temoprarily remove my ront but the mounts holding it to the chassis broke when trying to remove so mine is permanantly gone. its tippy as hell anyways.

 

i removed the front, a little more body roll, but nothing too bad imo.

 

You hit the nail on the head.

The bolts broke off on the axle swaybar mount and drilling those out was a huge job. I should have taken it into a shop where they had proper tools to do it.

 

search sway bars. I'm tired of writing this. Off road good idea. On road very very bad idea.

 

Countryhick...sell me your front sway bar,if you have no future use for it! :>)
Pleeeeease!??
Mine is bent on the passenger side.
You have the same model and year as I do.

X2, after almost rolling my 4runner on a highway curve going 65mph, I put might back on.

The sway bar might help with flex but I keep mine on for when I hit off camber spots. My sway bar keeps my top heavy 4runner more stable in those off camber situations.
