Sway bar removal?

i am doing a 2.5 level kit with new OME coils (cause my old ones are worn out) would i need to get a different sway bar or should i just take it off or what??? i drive on the street 95% of the time so i don't know if this would be beneficial for me or not any and all help is appreciated.

 

Most people on here will tell you to take it off. I still have mine on for the moment, but just had to get a swaybar relocation kit from ToyTec b/c it kept rubbing the coils of my Kings. If you're mostly on the road, then it'd probably be best to keep it on.

 

No you don't need to remove it. You can take it off if you want but be prepared for more body lean when turning. Mine is off right now because of a messed up link. Im waiting every day to have the time to go get a new one and put it on

 

I have found that disconnecting my anti-sway bar has significantly improved how my truck handles uneven terrain both on an off pavement. Now a rut or pothole or any unevenness on one side do not effect the other side, And I was surprised to see that it actually improved how the rear suspension functioned to.

If 5% of your annual miles are off pavement, I would say that is a lot and you will benefit greatly from removing, or at least disconnecting for a while to see the difference for yourself.

 

If you're mostly on road keep it on......mines off and I love it but I don't drive a ton (3 miles to work) and offroad as much as I can. The truck does handle diff and there's more body roll you have to be aware of.

 

I agree completely with everything Mike said. +1

 

I've had mine off for 8 months and i threw it away it rides so much better without it.

 

I took mine off for a while and it was great on uneven road. Although once you are at 65 and some shit happens in front of you on the fast lane, you'll suddenly realize why its there. It freaked me out enough to put it back on. I prefer the ride with it off but it will save you in high speed maneuvers on the highway.

 

I was thinking this too If you toss it please don't drive crazy fast, you might need to dodge a deer or something and end up hitting someone

 

I took mine off 5 years ago, never put it back on....I dont even know where it is!! ha... And I commute 35 miles one way in my truck to go to work.

Rides so much better on and off road.

And no need to worry about body roll because the new coils will keep everything nice and firm.

 

I've had mine off for almost a year now. My drive to work is 33 miles on the highway. I don't mind having it off but I also don't drive crazy.
