Body Damage is Cool

I don't like the amount of body roll and general loose feeling that results from having no sway bars. I keep my front sway bar on for driving around town but remove it for 4-wheeling trips - it only takes about 10 minutes to remove the front skid plate, remove the sway bar and replace the skid plate.
My rear bar has been permanently removed.

![[Linked Image]](http://www.gitout.com/apics/95montero/offroad/08-07-10/TSF%20Montero%20103.jpg) This is my favorite picture. This is perfect for a computer desktop background or picture on a calender. I thought about a quick disconnect like the jeeps have. i have forgoten all about ti when I was rebuilding my front end. I think you might have problems with the tie rod in the way but I am not sure. Good idea.

Oh, and yeah, the 'C' in Canon stands for CRAP! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I bought the camera for its video capability. Search Vimeo to see what people are doing with it (impressive stuff). Much has to do with ability vs capability when it comes to cameras.

I live in Portland about an hour from Tillamook State Forest. There are tons of trails up there. Everything from moderate to extreme. Just need some lift and good tires. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
