i looked at the photo you posted of your rear diff, and it looks like you have the mounting points for them on the axle but no sway bar. weird.

i was thinking that. but like i said the mounts are there i could always upgrade it and put one on there. people take off the front one for more flex but why the back, so you can get the back tire off the ground? lol
