remove the rear axle sway bar? more travel out of the axle? My 2500 RAM never had one and had more flex than a street girl.

Its really up to you but how much 4 wheeling to street driving are you going to do? Why not just remove it when you go wheeling or figure out a way to make it dis-connectable? Now that would be cool.

Not more travel, more independance. The swaybar links the two wheels together and doesn't allow for as much flex.

I have seen sway bar links that where like that...they have a bolt or thick cotter pin that you can pull to swap styles. I know when i did my lift i drove around with them off...rear end really rolled

My first gen didn't have the option for a rear sway, I added one and I offroad a lot. Worth it with the time I spend on the street.

When I finish my sfa I'm gonna have front and rear sways with disconnects
