Sway bar or not with air ride?
This question is for you guys with air ride. Particularly the 67-72 crowd. Do you guys get rid of or still use the front sway bar with your air ride on the front end? Thanks!!

Re: Sway bar or not with air ride?
A sway bar never hurts whether bagged or static dropped. I would definitely run one if you only have front/back and not four way to help with air transfer.

Re: Sway bar or not with air ride?
Heavy front ends w/o optimum geometry are a good place for a swaybar.

Re: Sway bar or not with air ride?
Kewl, thanks guys. I have a 72 GMC without a front sway bar. I am currently installing one, as soon as I get the right bushings tomorrow. The truck never had a sway bar on it, and it turns pretty good. I am planning on installing air ride on the truck in a year or two, and didn't want to have to remove it for the air ride.
