I took my front bar of at Thunder last year and left the rear bar on for traction purposes. I also put on a short belt (no Power steering) and drove around all weekend at the track like that. It really sucked. When I put everything back on, it felt like a new truck. I dont think it really helped much either. I would just keep it on if I were you.

yea i think i will. i here the hotchkis sways are heavier. it would be nice if i could just buy the rear hotchkis sway and leave the stock on there but i dont think they sell seperate. you have to buy both.

might have to go with one of those helwig bars in the rear..

thanks guys

Why not try http://p-s-t.com/ and get a sway bar from them. My friend had one on his dakota and it made a big difference. Also they got pretty good prices.
