Front sway bar removal - why?

[D98GT]

I imagine it will react the same way as taking it off of a 3V.

I just pulled the end links for the time being as there is plastic coverings that block off the other mounting locations and I didn't feel like fooling with that.

Doesn't take long to do at all

What dangly bits? I unbolted/removed my sway bar with nothing left dangling.

Mental picture LOL. If you talking about the sway bar end links, take them off.

lol. Yea. So the swaybar can just sit in there? Or do you zip tie it up?

 

[Mike K]

It takes about 2 min more to just zip the rest of the bar off plus the you loose some weight.
Mine came off in the fall and won't go back on as long as I have the car

The Dangly bits delete mod is worth 3.14 rwhp. Get with the program....sheesh!

Yes it does something else besides saving weight; it makes the S197 handle like a shopping cart with a jammed wheel.

LOL!!!!

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Really....never experienced that in the year it has been off.

 

[07 s197]

Yeah I never noticed a difference with mine off..... and no it didn't get driven easy lol

 

[rayS197]

im thinking about it. Greg, Eddie did you take on the highway??

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Yep! To and from NOB daily.

 

[07 s197]

Any where and every where. Was a daily driver, it had the drop suspension though. People will probably tell a difference at stock ride height

 

[rayS197]

No issues huh???? HMMM you guys costing me more money. LOL!! Im looking at the CHE

 

[Greg Hazlett]

The UPR/GMS is a heck of lot cheaper...$80 shipped.

 

[07 s197]

Just take it off to see how you like it before you spend money on the delete

True. Good point. Thanks

That's what I did. UPR Sway bar eliminator. Car feels nose heavy in tight turns. You get used to driving with the sway bar out.

The piece is actually a radiator support:


Removed the sway bar and radiator support:

 

[Greg Hazlett]

Same thing I have! It was nice to get that much weight off the nose.

But...Ray is running skinny/fats so that may affect his handling a lot more since the tires are a lot smaller.
