I took my front sway bar loose monday and boy what a difference in the ride and handling I know I may not be able to hang curves at high speed but she sure rides softer and has great articulation.

Now dump the rear and never look back.

I took my front off the second week I owned my RZR. I removed my rear over the summer. It will lean more, But it handles rocks and washouts much better..

Oh man you guys are brutal, just noticed the posts. Haha in that picture that was back when we were 50" wide and had about 12" of ground clearance.. A good stiff breeze would put me on my side.. Since I did the Plus four believe it or not I've went like a year with out going over even with out the sway bars.. I did roll it playing on the ice a few weeks back but that was due to a low tire and power sliding.. The flop at windrock sorry to say was all me lol.. Don't mess with your gloves going down hill with a slope on both sides..

Leave the rear off and increase your preload some more. With out the bars it helps to stiffen up the shocks some. If they are set to soft it will lean pretty bad at high speed..

Are you still running stock springs and shocks?.. I'm only 180 pounds and my wife is much less, but I broke both my bump stops on my stock shocks before I replaced them. The stock springs aren't very good. As far as a +4 goes. Well thats a whole other deal. I broke down and done it because I wanted more ground clearance and stability.. You can only lift a 50" so much before the CVs bind. Like I said before if you lift it with out making it wider they get pretty tippy.. But if yours has 12 of ground clearance now, thats about has much lift as you can get with out adding longer A-arms.

You can replace the bump stop. The shock end unscrews from the shaft. Its not super easy to do but you just need a decent vise to clamp down on the shock arm.. You do it close to the shock eye so if you do manage to scratch it the new bump stop covers it anyway..
