heres my thought on them, they don't do anything but help your suspension and the only reason people take them out is for weight savings. how much do you guys really think these things weigh you down? not to mention its in the rear of the car. front of the car is where you want to start losing weight first.
THey weigh like 3 lbs each...seriously maybe 5lbs. lol

6 lbs. lol i guess it would be a start to putting the car on a diet. to be honest i don't even know where they are so i figure i would argue in its favor lol no but honestly i was gonna take mine out but i figure it can only help even with the aftermarket ca's so i figure it wasn't worth the 5 pounds i woulda saved. maybe if i had a full out drag car that was gutted to the max for superior weight transfer.
