Was wondering if anyone here is running without the front swaybar? The wife is really starting to push her 03 Sport now and any additional articulation we could get out of it would be great.

Is it worth it? I wheeled a IFS 99 ranger for years and removing mine made a big improvement off road and actually made the truck ride much nicer on the street.

Agreed. Running without the front swaybar attached is very, very squirrely at higher speeds - I did it by mistake once. I wouldn't do it on purpose again.

My front and rear swaybars have been off for over 2 years. I don't wheel it much so I don't know what happens there. It rides much better on road but with noticeable lean. It would be more likely to turn over in emergency handling ..... but thats why they were put on there in the first place. I'm considering putting the front one back on.
