Front sway? Connected?
For drag racing....I know some of you have had to have tried it...any positive disconnecting the front sway?
I know the purpose on a solid axle car. With IRS it shouldnt work as well if at all...but, with a real stiff adj rear sway bar maxed out? I plan to try it...it's just a PITA to disconnect at track without just pulling an endlnk off. Curious if anyone else has pioneered this here.

I have had mine disconnected for 3 mouths it seem to help at the track a little with weight transfer. have not seen no real difference with highway driving. The next time its on the rack i will remove completely.

I took mine off a few years ago and it did nothing but the car track like shit on the roads. Now it's letting to much weight transfer. We keep upping the rear spring rates. I should but it back it. At least now I have time to think about it.

Edit: tracks like shit on the road with skinnies. Not as bad with the street tires but noticeable on a highway.

I've had mine off over a year. Mine drives great without it.

I'll have to go under my car at look at mine. 4th gen days I'd remove them, but some guys also removed the one side end link on race day.

That's what I was going to do...just ditch one endlink. I think these pfadt springs are probably part of my 60ft fight. Handle and ride great on the street and curves. Coilovers will be my only answer for 100 percent flexibility. I think that money is going in the cam though. Lol
