pretty much, If i removed the rear sway completly im pretty sure my springs will def. pop out, without limit straps or something of that nature. I did a little searching when i was considering removing my sway bars and alot of guys had removed the front with happy travel gains and minimal added body roll(with stronger springs up front); however, the guys that had removed the rear said they didnt gain much extra travel over just adding extended links, and that the body roll was a bit much durring on road driving without the rear sway bar, plus the ones that left the rear out all added limit straps. I had the axles moving pretty good yesterday and all i can say is im extremely happy with my setup the extended links will be icing on the cake. All I need now is a locker in the rear and i wont look like such a noob trying to hop over those rocks lol. oh and i spoke with medic over at toyota120 he got my links shipped out last friday so i should see them pretty soon
