That is the question.

Who has just removed and tossed their sway bars?

Do you recommend it?

Any problems?

I don't have my sway bar connected on my cj. Around where i live mostly city driving and highway driving i do not notice a differance. As soon as i get on to some back roads near my parents house I have to drive much slower b/c it definatly leans a lot more.

SO if you drive back roads a lot i would suggest keeping it. If you are on more highways take it off. OR disconnect it drive around for a day or two and see how it feels

My Bro in Law has his sway bars disconnected on his CJ, and even withthe crazy amount of lift he has, and the 37" MTR's he is running, he says it drives just fine.

I run 14"s of lift and 39.5's on my 85 and i have a sway bar, once i took it off and noticed alot more rolling of the chassis and it was hard to steer down the road

I think I'll likely take your earlier suggestion about trying it out for a few days...if I don't like it...then I may opt for a set of QD's... :D

What are you running for axles and tires? Your rig looks similar to what I'm about to put on the road (again), but I can't make out what rubber ur runn'n. And I can't even get my panhard rods (thanks TM) back in without twisting up my springs, so I'm looking for a set of the adjustable ones.

Interesting;

"My axles are stock d20 and M20. I put 1 piece axles in the rear. As far as suspension currently it is just stock springs with AAL so about 1.5" and slightly taller shackles but very worn body bushings so they actually settled about 1/2". My tires are 33x12.5 pro-comp MT's which measured just about a true 33 when they were new. "

Sounds a lot like my daughters rig (35 front, 20 rear, crushed body mounts, etc.) with 2 exceptions, I've replaced all the rusted body parts with new steel panels, and stuck a 4" RE under it. We're pulling the 31s off and going to stuff some 35's under it. That is whenever I find the deal for them :lol:

there was a guy either on Jeeps unlimited or www.snort4x4.com/forum that was selling the truxus MT in 35" but the shipping would probally kill ya.
