removing the dogbone

[projectfiveo]

hey ive heard about removing the dogbone to get rid of vibration...well im finally going to do it, but i need to know how hard it is to remove?? does anyone have any pics of the dogbone?? and also im going to remove the front sway bar, how hard is that?

Removing the dog bone should not make less vibration. It is there to REDUCE vibration. It is located on the bottom of the pumpkin, under where the driveshaft connects.

The sway bar, you remove the end links, and the mounts to the frame rails and it slides right out.

I gotta say I dont get that one either Nick. I'll say that with his 3.73's, the dogbone isnt probably doing a whole lot but it's weight over the rear end........

In any case, since I havent done it, I cant say how to do it. I know it's been covered in past threads if ya get real antsy to get it done.

Good luck.

Its only held on by 2 bolts, I took mine off to clean it up and paint it last year.

Took mine off, no issues at all. Just remove the 2 bolts holding it on, then reattach the upper bracket that holds your bump stop with 2 shorter bolts. Done.
