sweet, congrats! Btw, good choice on going with the disconnects too

IMO I would remove the rear swaybar completely....not necessary now....unless of course if its the only thing holding your springs in, but it probably isnt......leave that to the watts link. So go remove your rear swaybar....

Simply amazing!!!!

drum655 · 03-07-2006, 07:23 PM

i think i may remove it....does it feel any different on the road without the rear sway bar?

llesra · 03-07-2006, 07:26 PM

youll notice a small difference without the rear sway bar but youll quickly re-adjust your driving and forget about it being gone.

RageRover · 03-07-2006, 07:26 PM

Oh damn, I didn't realize that those were disconnecting links for the front sway bar! Sweet!!

keptin · 03-07-2006, 07:27 PM

yeah...it was a very slight difference.....compared to a very large difference IMO when you drive with the front swaybar off. If you look at the thickness of the rear sway compared to the front sway, you will notice that it is considerably thinner.....its not doing near as much work as the front.

RageRover · 03-07-2006, 07:28 PM

What would happen if I completely removed the sways on my RRC, I've heard that it wouldn't make it that much of a difference but not sure.

Funrover · 03-07-2006, 07:29 PM

That thing is looking great!! I love it man!!!!! You have done well!!!

drum655 · 03-07-2006, 07:31 PM

dont forget wally world aux. lights, stickers (at least one), and scratches, maybe dents/giant gashes

...if not, you need to wheel a bit more to get those mods.
