    Thanks! I have a love/hate for the color. Looks sweet but shows scratches very easily.

    How's the ride after removing the sway bar? Noticeable? Trying to decide if I should take it off for wheeling only or all the time.

    Slightly noticeable but nothing to worry about. I also did it with the stock bumper up there so it may have been a large change had I removed it with the plate bumper.

    Either way I don't notice it really. I feel more body roll in the rear end with a shackle flip.

    I have mine off all the time. Definitely a must for offroading. it bothers some people with out it on the road but I don't think its too bad. I slid sideways the other day in the rain and it is not as responsive to correction without the sway bar but I wouldn't say it was too bad. Just more body roll in a quick reaction.

    did you tap into the trailer plug? That's what I did to trigger my rigid reverse lights. I was thinking of installing a switch with it as well one of these days

    Lol it might, got a whole list of things to do in the next 2 months. Small stuff.

    I'm going to use a SPDT switch so than can be triggered by shifting into reverse or turned on. Tapping everything under the dash for that though.
