did you toss the front and rear sway bars yet?
It's free to just take 'em off, and you get tons and tons of articulation, but it's a PITA to put them back on.
If you got a hundred bucks, take off the rear sway bar, and buy quick disconnects for the front.
If you're stock height (no lift) and have no sway bars, it's bad enough driving on the street, if you're lifted, look out...
Oh, and how about hood vents?

switch the manual fan to an electric fan (more power, better mogs, gets to temp fast)
136amp alt off 96-98 v8 grand cherokee (lights are brighter, turn signals fast, will really help when i get lights and winch)

I AGREE
I think if the sway bars are there, then leave them. Especially if its a daily driver. If you full off road, then why not.

I'm not sure where your located but if you disco the front sway bar and drive in the snow and that rear end whips out it's gonna take mad skills to keep that thing from body rolling(at first) and then completing the roll with you upside down in a ditch.
Disco's are good, and made for a reason

toolbucket, I'm assuming by you're lifted with big tires so you probably dont ride around with that little donut of a spare in your trunk. make use of the mount and keep your work (or trail) tools from sliding around and dumping out

I would definitely take the rear sway out of there and toss in the garbage. As for no front, thats your own personal opinion. I don't have either of mine and I'm at 6.5" lift. I don't get that "boat" like feeling everyone else describes.
