and yes I still have my sway bar..dont go off road much with these thornbirds!(they SUCK every where but DRY pavement..lol)
when i get my 35's i may take it off but i doubt it! you loose alot of frontend stability..not good for highway driving...Which i do alot of some times!
Its really all on how and where you drive the truck the most! you dont want to get to crazy cranking the t-bars all the way and taking the swaybar off if you are on the highway alot...

thts not it. i tweaked my bed and then i did a leaf spring swap and its still like that.
the beds just tweaked im sure. dont worry about it unless you want a new bed.

well ok here the deal........heres what happend.... the other day i was messing around in this place we call the hill and i fell off into a 3 foot hole.....and got stuck.... well i got out of the hole found level ground checked everything out....cause i wanted to make sure i didn't break anything...well i noticed it sitting maybe an inch lower on the driver side... the drivers side was flexed so far that i could have probally sat indian style on top of the tire while it was in the hole.......the day after i went to go get my motor and tranny they were still bolted together... and i took a turn and the chain came un done that was holding it up right and it fell to the drivers side and now it's very noticeable lean to the drivers side

it doesn't lean, it just sags alot if any weight is put in it...
