I had my front off on the 87 SWB. With a 1" BL, t-bar crank, and 33s, it drove okay on pavement, but you could feel the need to be mindful to not make a hard cut without the swaybar. I put it back on when my teenage son drove it for a while. It's still on now, as it hasn't seen any trails in too long.
