    Although I have a second gen mine was a pain in the dick to put back on and was really stiff killing a ton of articulation, so I opted to take it off completely and don't regret it at all

    I hated the on road feeling with it off (my passenger side end link grenaded about two months ago).

    Way too much body roll and driving up/down the mountain passes in wintry conditions made my butthole the size of a decimal point.

    I may look into the guy here who sells quick disconnects. So when I do go off road I won't feel very limited articulation in the front.

    I got used to it even with having the RTT up there, granted the 700lb springs help

    Those springs definitely make the difference. I'm on OME 881s which has a spring rate of 500 lbsf/in.

    Thanks for the link! Drove up there today with my son to check it out. Fun trip on a beautiful day. Came home with a new little engine.

    Came out fucking great. RIP, Angel.
    She passed last Friday - brain aneurysm at 55yo.
    No warning signs.
    You never know the last time you'll see someone.
    I worked with her for 8 years. Close friend as well.

    Hug your loved ones.
