i have a stock height 03 on 22x10 w/ 7.5" BS 285/35/22 and today i noticed when i changed my rims back to stockies there was some rub marks on that 1.5 - 2" bar that goes from the control arm to the front of the truck. what is that bar for? and when i bag my truck is this going to be more of an problem?

I've seen some people say they took them off with no problems ... my 00 aint got them

that's ur front sway bar, it reduces body roll when cornering. my tires rub slightly on mine, just enought to shine it and i've had no problems.... i would keep it on there though, it'll roll pretty bad when cornering without it

That doesn't sound like his sway bar. The sway bar is not 1.5-2" long and it doesn't run to the front of the truck. Mine has some 2' bars, but they don't run from the control arm. They run from the frame, so I don't really know what you're talking about..

Oh, ok .. you meant your sway bar, I was confused ... you need your sway bar, just deal with it :evil:

I was confused too. Yes, it's your sway bar. Keep it.

22x10's up front???... damn, there is definately going to be some issues if you're planning to bag it on those wheels.

i don;t have a sway bar, its not necessary for driving, you just can't drive as fast as before

Sure you can, you can't take turns worth a damn though.

Sam, if you want to keep your sway bar, Bill will find away to do it. If you get rid of it, make sure the front is individual not "T" off.

 

[Downfall]

well i really want my truck to handle the absoulte best it can... laid out of course :evil: i really dont ever drive fast becasue i dont want to bend a rim on some damn pothole.

but i do want to take corners fast every now and then so i guess i do need to keep them if bill can which i doubt will be any kinda problem for him :read:

oh yea what about s2s with sway bars i wont be able to get very high right? or is that what your talking about getting individual and not "T" off?

I think what they meant was if you don't run a sway bar, makke sure you are running a 4-way air suspension, and not a 2-way where the front 2 bags are T'd off one line, cause 2-way will roll side to side more.

I think 2k1slvrdo took his sway bar off to be able to hit better sides?

my swaybar is also gone.

 

[bcubed]

my swaybar is also gone.

Mine just has cut down end links

 

[02chevy]

mines gone.my truck has no sway bar, and t-ed off lines,lets just say it rolls a LITTLE bit

 

[grounded]

You can still get s2s with a swaybar. Railinchevy from FSC has his still. Just be carefull I've heard of(never seen though) people breaking thier end links.

 

[Will]

yea mine is gone to hit better sides. I don't really notice the roll that much, but then again, i usually drive with my truck locked up.

 

[chevyman992002]

i dont notice too much roll with mine either. really only when im riding really really low.
