TRD rear sway bar effect off-roading that bad?

Have 20 tundra. 1.9 6112’s and 1.5 icon pack in back with airbags. I have a slide in camper. Bags do well. Maybe slow the body roll some. Is the rear sway bar helpful or Restricting while Off-roading. I’m not going roackncrawling. Lots of post, but not much about a camper in the bed. Just towing. Thanks you all love the input.

 

Sway bar will stiffen up the body roll, but it restricts articulation. "Off-roading" is to generic and widely used to let us know how it will impact you, because everyone has their own definition. You say you don't rock crawl, so what is type of off-roading do you do? Just forest service/fire roads? 2 tracks and trails with some off camber sections? Do you ever get to a point where one of your rear wheels is drooping a lot and the other is stuffed way up in the fender?

 

You can't do this -> https://www.tundras.com/threads/wha...5-gen-tundra-today.713/page-2535#post-2907038 with a sway bar. Notice, he's not rock crawling.

 

ya more dirt and 2 track roads with minimal articulation. Lots off road and mountain highway pass driving. Just did it know if would help at 50mph on curvy roads

 

It will definitely help on curvy roads, but you will lose some articulation. If it's really just mile articulation you'd likely be fine.

 

I like my rig better with the sway-bar by far.

 

You can always undo one side of the sway bar and zip tie it up to the frame when you get to the trail. I drive logging roads and I leave it connected. Big improvement on road, helps with on ramps and trailer sway.

 

Wait what's a sway bar?

 

Dont worry about it. It is something mere mortals need, Not superstars.

 

LOL

 

We're gonna need more pics of this baddass rig

 

If you decide to add the rear, I would suggest not bother with adding the front trd bar

 

I would like to hear more about this. I’ve never run a rear and am about to ditch my front for more articulation.

I’m the truck on the right with no flex. @FrenchToasty ’s sexy rig on the left.

 

My rig is 9000#s, verified on CAT scale, and there is a considerable amount of that higher in the bed/camper. I run the regular front sway and TRD rear sway. The on road pay off is worth way more the the little articulation I loose. I am also on the east coast so the vast majority of my driving is getting to places that can get dirty.

It's only needed for people that drive fast, understandable you don't know what it is

 

Ummmmm…….

 

Hahaha I only go to malls

 

A few flex pics from Monday. These are with both sway bars at the same time.

 

Sick fwc OP. My Sway bar has never kept me from places I have wanted to go.

Key word.. wanted.
