    Just installed exact same set-up on my 95 runner. How do you find the 8000s? Haven't wheeled it with the set up yet but seems like they're a little stiff, considering ditching the swaybar.

    Really don't need the front sway bar but I'd keep the back one.

    Do you remove the whole thing? Or just disconnect the metal rods on the ends.

    I pulled the whole thing out...You have to watch though some places will not inspect it if it's missing.

    Like I said...All depends on who you take it to.
    My guy it's all good. I know others state all suspension parts have to be there, new/used/aftermarket doesn't matter but has to be there.

    Haven't wheeled my truck either aside from random ditches that i try to get stuck in, but dont lol. I agree that they are kinda stiff, well when compared to my old KYB's that is. I removed the sway bar on my 4Runner not much of a difference aside from a little more body roll on turns . Also when i went to get my 4Runner inspected i told the guy i had no sway bar on the front and he told me "i don't give a damn about your sway bar"

    4" bracket lift. 80 series coils. Keep in mind this is the height with the extra 150lbs of a 4.3. And no the hoist is not supporting anything.
