daily driving with swaybar disconnected.............
i've been driving for a couple of days with my swaybar disconnected just to see how the jeep would act. other than the front end squatting a little bit around curves / corners, i really don't see a big difference. i think i could just leave it disconnected all of the time. can this cause any type of damage to my jeep, or is there any legitimate reason why i shouldn't do this??

Under normal driving conditions it should be fine. I know several people with x's and they leave their jeeps disconnected when they know they are going on several runs close together. Just watch out on the corners and you should be OK.

If I see a big black jk rolled on hwy 190, I'll know what happened.
With the way some of the assholes drive around here , cutting out in front of ya and stuff, I wouldn't leave it like that. They're there for a purpose.

I've had mine off for a week now, no big deal. Just haven't gotten around to re-connecting. Whenever I go to Moab, I disconnect once when I get there and don't reconnect until were packed up and ready to go.

Hi Mate,
Please dont do it as ur insurance will not cover you in case of a crash. Also you will be held liable for damage to the other vehicles included. They will term it as illegal tempering with suspension.
