So that the front end can lift up more, resulting in better weight transfer.

your truck is lowered isn't it???

Wouldn't that make it stiffer so you wouldn't notice the body roll as much as someone at stock ride height?? like me?

If it won't hurt I'll yank mine off tomorrow for the better weight transfer and the small reduction in weight.

Yes it would be more noticeable in yours, but i can't say how much. Just unhook the end links and go for a drive to see how it feels.

Good thread! I could only cut a 1.8 with all the crap I have.
I have a hotchkis front sway bar, would that be why maybe?
