Has anyone tried running a heavy duty front sway bar and removed the rear sway bar?
My rear sway bar gets beat pretty badly when rock crawling; it hangs lower than my metal tech rear lower control arms, and is in the line of fire. So far it's survived with only scratches. I’m planning to remove the rear sway bar before running the Rubicon this summer. I tried removing the rear sway bar for a few weeks, but had a bit too much body roll around town.
I have a front sway bar disconnect, it works great on the trail. My front sway bar bushings are really worn out though and make more noise than anything else on the truck
I am considering to upgrade to a TJM bar instead of just getting bushings for the stock sway bar:
TJM Heavy Duty Front Sway Bar 80 & 100 Series Live Axle 32mm
My buddy is a Rover head. He mentioned early 2000's Range Rovers run a large front sway bar with no rear. That way they can remote disconnect the front and run no sway bars on the trail.
Has anyone tried this setup? Words of wisdom? These other threads didn't mention running front only:
Whats everyone using for upgraded sway bars now?
HD front sway bar to reduce body roll?
Here are some photos for fun - worn out front:
Rear hangs low:
