Thats exactly what I do if it is leaning a lot.

Nice thread. Im having the same problem but my concerns are offroad. the lean is fun on road. Im wheeling out of my league lately. Im consistantly the only non trailered rig. In my efforts to keep up, and stay in good shape, Im trying to become more stable I frequently find myself in VERY off camber situations where tiny manupulations in the steering wheel will result in a roll. Im going to lower the truck as much as possible and want to reinstall the rear sway bar. Its nice to hear the sway bar made a difference. I dont like the body lean off road, and perticularly the way the body can gain momentum during a quick rotation. A buddy of mine (Carl from Outback Offroad) barreled 4.5 times last weekend with us at the badlands due to that.

Oh BTW the rig (for those who dont know) is a 92 runner, full exo(yeah I know), 4" Marlins up front, 5" marlins out back, 37 1350 15 pitbull rockers, on beadlocks (which makes a difference in stability), currently my frame height is about 26.5" full air, and 24" at trail pressure.

My trucks don't lean too badly yet (I am still running 31's) but after I get my V6 thirds regeared with the 5.29's and I am running my 37" MTR's I think that it will be different.

Make the truck low, make the axles wide and realize what you are driving.

Carl's truck is floppy. Met them at the UA last year.

Leaves are better than links in this arena. A swaybared link truck will do better.

My air bumps and coilovers keep the lean in check as they dampen most of the near compression travel over a range, not just for the last inch.

Before that, it was leaning a lot.
