I removed both sway bars i had installed on my 2011 impreza outback sport. The car drives great. Tested on highways, rough roads, rocky terrain and snow.
I'm still on stock suspension and my normal setup is connected front, no rear. With the stock springs and no sway bars, I find the car nosedives under heavy breaking. I reconnected my rear sway for inspection and found it didn't nosedive nearly as much. I'm thinking of a quick disconnect solution is the way for me.
Oh interesting! But I can total see that with stock springs, and no rear sway bar, the weight transfer is going to be much more dramatic with a lifted, sway bar deleted car. I know SLO used to make rear sway bar disconnects back in the day but I am unsure if they make them anymore
It's hard to exactly tell since I put the coilovers on at the same time but it's a big enough difference that when I tested it compared to a Baja with 6 inch strut top lift and the sway bars connected, I made it through the cross ditch at an angle and he was not. Based off of how much his tires were in the air I would say 3-4 inches from side to side
@@Chase_Schrader a wheel slipped of the side of a cattle grate. It hooked on and broke the linkages. I like it removed though. And as you mentioned I have heavy springs, the body roll on the road is not an issue really. Not a great deal of horse power to roll it around. 😂
