Front Swaybar??
I was wondering will I feel a difference if I remove the front sway bar, I know it's mostly for weight transfer, but will I notice a difference??? Also is it hard to remove the swaybar? Thanx

I have had mine off for months now. There is noticeably more body roll (especially on long cloverleaf type on ramps). It is not dangerous at all, as long as you aren't trying to be a formula 1 driver.
Removing it is simple. Just two brackets in the middle and one bolt at each wheel.

Re: Front Swaybar??
I snapped the passenger side bracket on mine a few weeks ago. I pulled the bar and brackets off and have been driving like that since then. The first thing I noticed was that the car road MUCH smoother over bumpy roads, but during a turn you can see and feel the body roll. It isnt uncontrollable, but deffinately noticeable.
It is very easy to pull. I took the brackets off along with mine. There are 4 bolts on each side plus the endlink nuts. You could just remove the 2 bolts from each bushing bracket and leave the mounting brackets in.
