xA or xB without Front Sway Bar?
Anyone else DD or race their xA or xB without one?
Just want to see who else is unorthodox when comes to suspension.

I know off-roaders disconnect the sway bars so they can get more flex and go over larger obstacles instead of having the sway bar connected and lifting the other wheel w/o contact in the air and just making it spin.

The reason I asked is because I have removed the sway bar completely. I, however, retained rear TRD bar. I also have Koni Yellows and with ++++ up front which has transformed my xA into a new car.
So far I LOVE over-steer new set up offers, especially on gravel. On streets, however, I'm as docile as a tiger shark, big and slow.
I'll have to do a final mixed dirt-gravel-tarmac run before I deem it road-rally worthy.
Cheers.....

I don't think more body sway increases over steer. It may feel as though you are flowing through a corner, but take one at high speed, and immediately turn the other direction and tell us how you feel about it then. Your body will still be rolling one way, and as you immediately change direction the body will still want to stay where its at and will cause the car to stay straight or be unresponsive. For street, not good. For dirt with lots of room, could be fun.
