It rode awful nice with the front bolt broke. I don't know if I'd also remove the rear bar. Maybe in Moab on extreme stuff like Poison Spider. It might be a bit too tippy with both disconnected.

The rear does keep it pretty even, so when the front goes back in, it's not that hard to line up again. I just pushed/pulled a bit while putting the new bolt in. It would actually be easier with a pin or stud though, because with a bolt, the threads have to line up perfectly or it binds. With a stud, you'd just need to push the bar back onto it while you reef on the underside of the Jeep. That's why I will make a stud out of a shoulder bolt. I already thought about just removing the bolt with a socket wrench, but lining up the threads while out on the trail would be a major PITA. And... the empty swaybar's bolt hole would get crap in the threads.
