Hey just lifted Gen 3 Montero XLS(not sport) and thinking about removing rear sway bar but had some questions:
1. If im offroading 15% of the time and driving on the road the other 85% of the time is it worth the traction loss and lower suspension control since the car has a high flip rate?
2. Will it cause any other parts to break or higher the risk breaking parts?(for example almost half lifted trucks where i live are straight piped bc it sounds good, but straight piping kills back pressure which can cause engine problems in the future)
3. Also Montero still runs amazingly even tho 210,000 miles because i take care of it really well but with 2in Polyethylene spacers and original stock coils will it cause to much stress on coils or will i have to buy new coils?
4. how much does the flexiblity increase with removal?

THANK YOU FOR HELP IN ADVANCE AND PLEASE TRY TO BE REALISTIC AS POSSIBLE WITH ANSWERS. I Say that because at the moment i am 17 and live with parents and pay for everything i do not including car and pay for everything with car and only make 400$ every 2 weeks so if it can cause a problem costing over 1000$ to fix in the first 2 years i wont be able to pay for the damages. THANKYOU. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
