Looks like your shackle angle is terrible, or is 45 degrees either direction okay? And why do you still have the rear sway bar?

Ditch the rear sway because it's kind of useless. It limits your flex, adds weight (hardly but still), and you really won't notice a difference without it. The front is important while the back is unnecessary, though a good number of people ditch the front as well.
And your shackle angle should be 45 degrees to the rear. You might want to look into relocation brackets or sliders.

X2 on the shackle angle. That is GOD awful. You will have basically no rear flex with that. you need relocation boxes BAD

Recommend leaving the sway bar. I wouldn't remove it for stability reasons. There are arguments against this, but I think the pros outweigh the cons.

The sway bar helps with stability both on and off road. It's your choice in the end, but I would certainly Google it and get a few more opinions.Originally Posted by sam.bellet

I can guarantee that once you take it offroading your coil spring will hit the sway bar. Its too low.

Its very simple.
Remove them, both of them. Cruize around, see what YOU think.
If you don't like it, put them back on.
Simple

Oh, LOL Thats just silly.
With those monster springs the rear sway bar is doing about absolutely nothing!
Like I said you can drill new rear upper shackle mount holes. Problem solved.
