Swaybar removal

Post by Jimijokela »

So. I know there are not many here who likes stupidly low cars, but maybe you can help how to remove my swaybar. I dont have endlinks on now so it wouldnt affect riding at all (doesnt affect anyway at my ride style), but swaybar is hitting on lower control arm and i have 5mm gap. So i know that on mk4 based cars it's terrible job to remove swaybar but is it that big job in these too?

I'm interested to know what removing the sway bar will do. Would it make the handling worse?

Like said i dont care about handling but. Now that i dont have it connected i cant feel any difference in driving. But i have stiff air ride suspension and dont drive/turn on fast speeds so i probably wrong guy to answer the question. Based on what i have read some guys like their car better without swaybar, but im doing it only for the lows.. :D
