    That’s an awesome story one of the best I’ve heard on here and glad you were able to take your vacation.

    Seriously would have been even better if you rollerbladed in the dark with a 50lb floor jack

    Bought a proper floor jack and went back in to remove the remnants of the sway bar links. Is this amount of rust normal for a 2015 with 40k miles? Anyways, it's finally done. Need to get some new links so I can finally put the damn thing back on lol

    I upgraded my rear leaf springs yesterday to dakars all by myself!! Big step considering I nearly killed myself just removing my sway bar. I only had to get creative once, after I discovered my upgraded exhaust pipe wouldn't let me pull the driver's side leaf out... I wonder how long a hangar would last??

    What are you insinuating?! That's the floor jack I have!!

    You are correct though...it's not a real floor jack. o_O :)

    Why you putting it back on?

    I’m quite fond of the front end not shifting in the middle of the road when I hit a hole. At least the suspension can work like it’s supposed to without the sway bar.
