    if you remove your swaybar, the front wheel will actually get in the fender, right now it's not compressing that'S why your truck is such at an angle.

    How would I go about removing the sway bar? Wouldn't that make it ride wierd on the road?

    You have to go under the truck, remove the bolts and links, and then take the sway bar off the frame. It will ride differently...but as long as you remember that you will have a bit more body roll and a bit less stability in high speed maneuvers...You'll be fine.

    I have my sway bar off of my sport with a 3 inch OME lift...no issues.

    OMFG! I want that Hilux. Such butter-sauce. lol BE careful when disconnecting your sway-bars. Of course you will get more flex, but they do limit your travel so you don't bend an axle tube or worse....
