    I think it's for off roading only. I don't think it will increase the articulation but changes it somehow.

    Articulation should be improved off road. Onroad, there's potential that sudden hard turn maneuvering at speed could be harder to control.

    Take it off and see if you like it. Doesn't take long and you can always put it back on

    do Tundras come with front sway bar already installed? I know the rear is an option or comes with the TRD package.

    I'm not sure about all tundra models or years. Definitely stock on all the Pro's. I'm pretty sure it's standard on the TRD off road package.

    Take it off if you offroad on trails more serious than just a dirt road or forest service road. You don't gain more travel (that's what coilovers and long-travel do) but you do gain better offroad articulation.

    A sway bar is meant to keep your truck flat to the ground, such as when you're banking fast and hard around a tight turn on pavement. That's not something you really want offroad, especially on off-camber obstacles.
