Schiffy Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 So when I slap the Coilovers on the front Saturday, I was thinking of removing the front sway bar. I did it on my '95 and could only describe it as "swoopy" afterwards. Anybody see any reason why I can't just unbolt it and remove it? (The sway bar off my '95 is actually still in my garage from 3 years ago...haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Moved to Suspension forumPersonally from what I understand (which isn't much as I'm not an expert and others can correct me if I'm wrong) but I see why it might be useful when at the drag strip but for the street it's more recommended to have the sway bar installed.

95riosnake Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Why are you wanting to remove it? If you want the weight savings there are much better places to do it.I personally wouldn't remove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L GT Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 (edited) Mines been gone for years. Before the big and Littles I could still take corners good. There wasnt that much body roll. Unless your auto x'ing then you will be fine without it. You can always put it back on later if you want Edited March 1, 2013 by F8L GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
