I took mine out of 92 Vit 2dr about 18 mths ago. Much better off road, not much different on road. I won't be putting it back in.

Every sierra owner takes it off, then it never goes back on.

Onroad not much different, offroad makes the front move more.

I'm putting upgraded swaybars on my sierra :? But with Quick Disconnects for offroad use :wink:

I find that there is a noticable difference in body roll when the swaybar is removed on-road. And this will be amplified as you lift the vehicle.

x2! Significant difference in handling on road, especially when loaded!

X3. Sierras are tolerable without it due to friction between the leaves. I find the jimny a lot more unruly. On the highway with lift and no sway can be a bit of a White knuckle affair.

I'm running no sway bar on my LWB Vitara.
I can feel the difference.
Heaps better off road, bit lioke a tug boat on road :)
My shocks seem to be soft at low speed, and stiffer at high speeds.
(or it could be my imagination)
So i can cope with it.
