Not a lot...
Reckon you only need a basic tool set and some grubby clothes
Ok so this is a first...no one has an opinion. I want to know if it would be too unstable. Usually I get about a million conflicting replies (some not knowing what they are saying but most quite knowledgeable).
Come on Dumbdunce tell us what you think?

Take em off and see how you go. I took the sway bars off the GQ, and while it get a little more roll on the road I would not say it is unstable. we are not settin these things up for the best onroad manners and should drive with that in mind

Chers Tiny,
Daz (China) told me about that on the weekend I think. Was his idea, I'm gonna get a poo-troll in the near future so I don't want to mod the old 60 too much.
Will let you know how it goes. Say G-Day to Daz for us mate

What shocks you running? I "retired" my swaybars from active duty when I did the spring over. There was a fair bit more body roll but I tightened up my ranchos and problem solved.
I say get rid of em!

i got rid of my swaybars ages ago on my 60....yes it does have a little more body roll on road...but it is nowhere near unstable!
and the funny thing is about this is the DOT didnt even notice when I took it over the pits for an inspection!

My shocks are just normal old ironman shocks (which i don't reckon are long enough anmore but aint gonna fix as its a waste of money if I'm gonna get a new truck). So I can't tighten them up but that shouldn't be a problem
