Well I'm gonna fix this sat hopefully and I will try removing it and see how she feels. I'm curious if any 4 Dr ppl run with no rear swaybar.

Interesting. You moved the swaybar, causing this problem in the first place, because the rear end felt loose on the highway. And now it runs better without the swaybar.

Yes. I feel a very slight bit more body roll on left and right turns, but driving straight feels good. Kinda doesn't make a lot of sense though, logically.
