THere was some posts on here about SAS projects, I think they were hilux or patrol, alot of work and engineering involved

Remove the front swaybar You will be surprised how much travel you actually do have. Its probably more than the setups of those giving you a hard time.
Dont fit harder springs to the front.
My bighorn surprised a few at club champs taking shiney class and halving the points of one of the series 2 landrovers in our group with a holden 6 and only loosing to the other by 40 points. Both landys were locked both ends with 35 inch tyres and the one I lost to also has a v12 bmw engine. I only get 32s and lsd.

thanks for that geeves will i get away with that on the road and will removing that will it cause any other problems ?

[geeves]

You will be surprised how little difference it makes. But do check your local road rules before this mod. In NZ swaybar removal requires certification which is why I have to put mine back every 6 months to get its wof (roadworthy cert)

ok then thanks ive been told if i remove the sway bar ill have heaps of body roll ?

[slightlydodgy]

Personally didn't notice any change on the road

[geeves]

Do remember they aint race cars. They do roll more but not by much. Other 4wds suffer more without the roll bar

[nick123]

aww ok yer i know that lol and r they hard to take off as ive never really had much to do with them ?

[nick123]

thanks for that to slightlydodgy muchly appreciated

[geeves]

Some mus were slightly different so do check wheel clearances after this. All Ive done with mine is remove the drag link between the A arm and sway bar. If you do this and are happy with the ride and you have no legal issues removeing the bar is just 2 more mounts to the chassis. Mine stays in as I have to put the drag links back in every 6 months for the roadworthy inspection

aww ok thanks heaps for ur time geeves muchly appreciated for that ill get it done and get back to thanks you.

[nick123]

hi, i have mine removed 6 months ago and overall it has a better ride with a standard setting no suspension lift an 31x10.5x15 wheels and ranchos 5000 the front end is much softer now and no noticable body roll, handling on the highway is the same .

[nick123]

ok then sweet i must agree much btr driving alot softer on the dirt also better travel...
