    good thing you're not 4x4. You'd be replacing an axle.

    ...What would you like to hear?

    The immediate practical advantage if you wheel is greater suspension travel. For those of you on road, the ride is more comfortable, if a little looser.

    That said, if you get in a wreck and insurance finds out it wasn't on there, you're fucked.

    So...pick your poison.

    I know removing it allows for more independent movement of each wheel's suspension, less body roll, real flexy and all that. But I am unclear as to the dangers?

    I know it should only come off if you off road your truck, which I do. Like are you more likely to lose control going fast like on the fwy or something? I don't get it :confused:

    MORE body roll at speed on road. And that is the "danger", if you can call it that, right there. It's easier to roll the truck.

    See above. You'll need to learn to drive a little more cautiously on asphalt especially through turns and clover leafs. If you're not a moron though, you should be fine.
