What a difference! I took off the swaybar last night and went for a drive.

The ride feels so smooth now. The suspension actually suspends! I dont smash over bumps anymore, I actually feel the suspension compress and extend and the car glides over them. No more knocking my head on the ceiling. The front end feels more "alive".

I'm not sure if it was the weight removal or the fact that the a-arms can now move more freely up and down but I just feel like I went to softer springs.

I took a few highway exits at 60mph and I feel a bit of tilt/roll but nothing exciting at all. Doesnt the bodyroll plant the tire doing all the work into the ground really hard? Isnt it like good weight transfer?
