Default Re: Any benefit to rear sway bar disconnects w/ IFS?

bumping old threads.... woot!

I've been doing my homework on swaybars and have read enough to understand the good points to using an anti-sway bar and the bad points to overcompensating the sway and why I don't want the bar hooked up while on the trail. Reducing camber on corners is a benefit to anyone taking a turn over 10mph. I really hate feeling like I'm going to fall out of my door if I don't hold on to my armrest when making a hard right. But slamming a rock on one side and feeling it as an 8" speedbump, I don't want either.

If I get a hellwig or something like it, I'm also going to want a disconnect kit from somewhere like frontrangefab. The kit costs 3/4 as much as the swaybar kit and they say you replace everything but the bar itself. Uhh...
You think I could pick up a bar from a junk yard or have one fab'd for me for cheaper than the whole kit? After install of your bar and install of the disconnect, you have a lot of extra parts now right?

Or do I even need the disconnect? My truck doesn't see many trails in southeast VA, it does see a lot of beach and deep sand though.

This is a worthwhile mod from the reviews, but does the gain outweigh the loss?

Thanks for reading.
