I've had no sway bars front and rear for over a month now. It's a little tipsy, but bearable. I've driven at 80+ too. Take them off and find out. The rear is useless, but the fronts do make a difference. I would definitely look into front QDs in the future... Mine are in the works.

In the last week, I have spent about 2500 miles at 75 or better without sway bars and had no worries.

In the last 3 years, I have covered 40k miles with no sway bars and no issues.

You need low profile bumpstops to gain all the travel.

My rig is low and wide. With a lot of lift it will be a handful. The good news is they are easy to get on and off, so if it sucks, you can put them back on.

I have my front disconnected an i can hardly notice it. I just drove 500 miles at 80mph and it was fine. As long as your not taking corners really fast then ull be ok. BUT, im only lifted 2" and on 33's. Just unbolt it and drive aroudn for a week and see how it is. You deffintaly get more flex without it though.
