How bad is it to drive without a sterring stabilizer? I just bent mine last night and took it completely off so I could get back home. I just want to know some opinions! I am planning on getting another one but it will not be for another few weeks? Should I still be ok driving my jeep?

Default you are ok

I drove mine for the last two weeks with the stabilizer pulled off. Busted my Teraflex one wheeling so I took it off. Just put the new one on this weekend

Sweet, thanks man. I was going to risk it. I am hoping to find a stock one that someone will donate or sale for cheap!

If your suspension is dialed in right, you shouldnt need one at all. Just helps with bump steer. This is what Wayoflife says manytimes. Good luck. Oh...I still use the factory one with my setup and no problems here.

Been a couple of weeks now and no issues just feel a little bit of bump steer but nothing major.
