    Just look at the build thread
    There was a guy on here a few years ago that was looking into this but not sure where his research got him. I know he never got a prototype going. There should be a thread in here somewhere discussing it.

    But seriously dude, you're putting way too much effort into this. Take it off and be done. If you roll your truck just from not having a swaybar, it means you drive like a fucking douchebag and deserved to learn the hard way. Quick disconnects have been tried in every form and fashion and have always failed. An electric disconnect is going to cost several hundred if not $1000 to design and implement. It's just not worth it.

    Howdy Fellas,

    Just joined here. Figured I'd pop in and see what kind of activity TW has in the Austin area.

    Lars, I think I've seen you around town. I love that speedway blue. I wish they used it on the '12+ models.

    Yes.
    Take a look at the "Mobile Antenna Farm" link in my Sig. Short version is, I'm a Ham, and each of them fills a distinct role.

    Entirely Likely. I'm on Hwy71 practically every day heading to or from work.

    Uncle just gave me a Remington 700 .223 tonight. Man, that barrel is heavy!
    Edit: It has a Leupold 3x9 scope on it.

    Really really over due for a day at the range. Do need to find someone with some land to test the reduced load rounds for my Mosin before I take it out to the Garland Range. Need to verify bullet drop on them so I don't hit their sand bags.

    If my powder-puff rounds make it half that way without a 30-degree trajectory I'd be amazed. LOL. Loaded them using mag pistol powder, should be about half of standard Russian mil-spec (aka - shoulder bustin' and/or dislocatin' power)
