Another vote for ditching the sway bar!

Nope, just take the bottom of the link off and zip tie the link to the sway bar.Any issues with removing the links but leaving the sway bar in place to try it out for awhile?
Right on, going to do that this week and run it for a month to get a feel for handling changes. Thanks!Nope, just take the bottom of the link off and zip tie the link to the sway bar.
You may not like it disconnected with the extra weight of the kayaks on top.Right on, going to do that this week and run it for a month to get a feel for handling changes. Thanks!
Between the kayaks and towing a small camper that is my concern but Iād like the additional flex off-road and the manual disconnects donāt sound too much fun soā¦You may not like it disconnected with the extra weight of the kayaks on top.
I tried that on one side and even jacked up the bronco to get maximum pull on the link and only got it to move up about an inch. Is there a trick to this?Nope, just take the bottom of the link off and zip tie the link to the sway bar.
You have to take both sides loose at the same time. But put it back on the ground before you take the other side loose. Those are bonded rubber bushings where it pivots. Itās gonna snap up there if you take the other nut off now while itās in air.I tried that on one side and even jacked up the bronco to get maximum pull on the link and only got it to move up about an inch.

Yup. Both nuts off - then it will pop up. When you put it back, get both bolts back in before you put a nut back on.

Or just pull your swaybar off and be done with it! That is what I've done and it is not sway'ee at all to me. LOL. I pulled the swsybars of my Land Rover Discovery and that thing swayed a lot. The Bronco, still corners real good without.
Pulled mine off also. I can tell a difference but itās not horrible. Tried that on the Gladiator and it was almost dangerous without it. Been running the Excursion without a front sway bar for a decade.
I'll try that . ThanksYou have to take both sides loose at the same time. But put it back on the ground before you take the other side loose. Those are bonded rubber bushings where it pivots. Itās gonna snap up there if you take the other nut off now while itās in air.
