I've been driving with mine disconnected for 6 months now ... and the only thing I do notice is increased body roll on turns, and a shaky feel to the truck at 90+ mph

I designed sway bar disconnects so I can have the best of both worlds. More articulation off raod and better handling on pavement

I took both off a year ago and it drives smoother and better than before.

actually it should ride smoother with no sway bar because the IFS can finnally due what it suppose to do, act independently.

I had my bars stored away for a few months incase I was going to use them again.

They finally ended up in the trash a couple weeks ago.

DOWN WITH SWAYBARS!
