Default taking off the front swaybar: SCHOOL ME

thinking about taking off the front swaybar. i want to have the nose fly up when i floor it, and maybe feel faster. more violent. don't want to destroy my handling.

how hard is it to take off?

give me all of your impressions on this.

The handling doesnt suffer that much really. You might have a bit more roll but i dont notice it in everyday driving, if you are racing then this would be a no-no

The best time to take the SB off is when your at the 1/4 strip...It saves weight when acclerating in a straight line but I would leave it on for everyday driving...someone who can give instructions on how to do this should chime in....the man is asking how its done
