honestly, it doesn't handle any worse than before. i am quite surprised. I borrowed a friends old belt from his non ace rover figuring i would try to disable it the easy way first(pump in place but doesn't turn). I expected every light on the dash to light up and it handle like crap. Well, only one little light comes on and it handles pretty damn good. I think it might have something to do with my RTE springs though. Stiffer than stock. My buddy completely removed his sway bars on his non ace rover and it's surprisingly stable too. He also has RTE springs.
if mine ever gets loose and swirly, ill try to swap out my buddies old sway bars and get rid of the ace sway bars. ill prolly have to leave the valve block under the passenger door in place though, as it has all the electrical connections and will prolly screw up the computer by removing.
After hearing my 00 d2 without the whining ace pump, i feel like i have a new ride. Very happy!
