you will notice a difference... some people don't mind and some people put it right back on.... you get some bad understeer going around corners


cons .... more weight reduced from the front end... thats about it

Yes you will lose handling. Why would you want to remove it? Is this car driven on the street? If yes, leave it on. It can be loosened at the track.

i took mine off. it sorta felt like a big crown vic around corners. more body roll in the front. but the car still handles good and i am not a corner carver so i wanted reduced weight. it had some weight.

now i cant even tell anymore.
