    There's nothing wrong with removing it on stock coils. There are plenty of people who run stock coils and no sway bar....I personally run stock coils, 35's, bumper, winch....the works. No issue at all. Drives awesome on the road and even better on the trail. Drive sensibly and everything will be fine.

    Well my coils must have been really sacked because when i made my first right turn ( at a slightly higher speed just so i could compare) Felt like i was gonna flip haha, & member RecklessTaco (matt) said it looked like a LT truck leaning in the turn, but i agree if you don't do anything stupid, should be alright

    Just the norm skids, sliders, & 35's
    Billies at 2.5 on stock coils is ok but I know there's a lot better out there. It's a little stiffer than I'd like but I'll go with ome or eibachs depending on what fits my truck best in a couple of months.

    Bah!! I'll stick it out through the winter haha. Right now I don't have the need to go "bigger" in that sense. It's not a sports car, nor is it "scary" on the hwy. Soft and smooth ;)

    Would I like a set of kings. Fuck ya. Have I almost purchased then twice. Yes. But I can't afford it right now so close to Christmas. I'm waiting for my Christmas bonus muhahaha. That's the next thing on the list actually. And UCA's

    Well right now, I have it perfect...at full compression I have exactly 1/4" to the lip of the fender all the way around. And that's where the bump stop hits. I want to keep it that way. Low and wide. Droop over up travel.

    Now to only keep it that way once everything goes on:confused:
    Tubbings a bitch. I'm not doing it again hahaha

    Thanks! I was trying to get it as clean looking as possible. Their are minor flaws, but they can be overlooked easily.
