acousticrawk · 07-30-2008, 03:55 PM

my yj is a daily driver, its lifted about 4 inches, and has a front shackle reversal. i also DD with a loc-rite rear locker. if i remoce the sway bars and trac bars, is it going to have a hade negative effect on my jeep? i took the sway bars off my stock height cj7 with no problems. anyone here driving without that junk?

after my fourth lift on 4 differant yj's, i decided to leave sway and track bars totally off. and couldent tell a differance, other than it flexed better off road. bear in mind that these were the cheap (stiffer) lifts: superlft, sky jack, and pro comp. never coughed up the coin for a rub exp or better. im sure if you hit I-75 at 85 mph regularly, you would appreciate any extra stability you could get, though

You should have put them in the trash the day you got the Jeep ! leaf springs do not need either !
