    Any of you guys not running a sway bar? Any complaints?

    Just noticed today mines rubbing on the coilovers making a squeak on the passenger side. Might try taking it offer before I order the relocation kit.

    No sway bar. Noticeable difference before alignment, after alignment - much more betterer. :thumbsup:

    No sway bar. No issues. Truck will lean over more, but it isn't concerning.

    Hmmm, maybe I should have just removed mine rather than spending the money on new bushings and links.

    Good to know... just had an alignment but I can't adjust the chamber because my cam's are frozen. I'm around a degree off on both sides.

    Taking the sway-bar off after work, we'll see how it goes. Fox coilovers up front so that should help.

    Well I got it out which took some work, those frame support bolts were pretty locked up.

    Rides freakin awesome, took out all that stiffness. Love it so far. If you jerk the wheel all over the road it does have some body roll but normal driving conditions it doesnt feel any different with it off just way smoother of a ride.

    We'll see how it does on the highway for the rest of the week and i'll make my mind up weather to leave it off or do the relocate.

    I drive highway everyday without one and I prefer it over with one. My only concern is high speed manuavers

    "Tacoma" and "high speed maneuvers" don't belong in the same sentence anyway.

    It seemed fine on the highway today, just way smoother of a ride.
