    did you remove the entire swaybar or just the endlinks? i read somewhere theres a guy that makes quick disconnects for the endlinks so you can remove it when ya wanna hit the trails.

    So far I've just disconnected the endlinks and ziptied them and bar up outa the way.

    Its not certain yet but right now I'm really liking the way it drives. It definately articulates better yet not too bad on the pavement. I may just remove the bar altogether.

    Sweet, I like where you mounted the switch. How did you get your cb mounted below your headunit? A bracket or something?

    Would love to see some pics of this. How much lift do you think you gained in total (minus the shackles) over stock? You still have that topper correct?

    If your referring to the bushing kit, I'm really not sure what the impact of only doing the poly bushings would have been since I disconnected the anti-swaybar at the same time.

    There is a little more body roll. But it definitely soaks up the pot holes better. It doesn't seem to have lost any cornering ability though it never was a slalom racer.

    All I am certain of, the more I drive it, the more I like it. :D

    Picked up a Camper Shell for cheap! Going to get it painted sometime..
    It has a carpeted headliner too!

    Also just sent a payment to a member here for an AFE Air Filter. Should be here by this weekend.
