Default Front sway bars....

this is a very hard decsion for me to do. i dont know if i want to just plain out remove the front sway bar completely or buy the Steeda tubular front sway bar. i know my 60' times will drop a little if i remove it but as for right now my stang is my daily driver. unless someone has a beater they could sell me for cheap

anyways, just some opinions on what some of you guys have done. is there any way to extend my end links to assist in the lifting of the front without removing the bar? or would i be in best shape to just buy the steeda one for $160?

What's a front sway bar? I yanked mine off over 4 years ago. Unless your gonna take the I4 Eisenhouer exit ramp at 90 mph it's not bad. Just gotta think when you corner. But definately doing in a daily driver. -Mark
