Default Sway bar removal...yay or nay?

As per title. I'm almost 100% on the 2" TF kit (not sure MD or HD springs yet) but what about the sway bars? Remove them?

That's what i am saying, unless your planning to do some extreme wheeling there is no reason to mess with it on a disco.... you average state park trails, gravel roads, dirt roads, scenic roads, your never going to have to worry about it and when you do need to worry about it, you better have some suspension upgrades and skid plates and the works package to boot.

if you are going with an HD kit and plan on adding armor, steel bumpers front and back, sliders diff guards and really plan on wheeling the truck I say yes remove them. I removed them on my d2 with the TF 2" hd kit and it really helped with some of the tough stuff. if you are going to be driving it often on the road then i would say no because the road handling especially on tight motorways is no fun task. It becomes floaty. i had a daily driver so i removed them because the disco was a trail truck... as an alternative you can make or buy some quick disconnects for the front sways.

No crazy stuff, no bumpers, no sliders, no case guards, yes mud, yes trails, yes highway, no quick disconects, no removal of sway bars.
