It depends how stiff yur rear leaf springs are to notice a difference on road (stif leaf springs= will not notice difference, flimsy leaf springs=will notice difference)

I run without front and rear. I daily drive mine and can only tell the diffrence in the front when going around a corner down hill, so I just slow down a little.

Am i the only one that finds it completely stupid to not run bars in the front?? All i hear is " ah just slow down around curves", well you have no idea when a dumbass might go into your lane, and you have to do some defensive driving, and in that case your completely effd!!!

I ditched the rear and could not tell the difference between when it was on and now when its off.

I rally the crap out of mine, no bars, I can and have made quick moves at highway speeds and didn't feel if it was out of hand. Just be aware that the handling characteristics are changed greatly and drive accordingly so. I actually prefer no bars during the winter, locked rear, get a little body roll pre corner and drift away. I think it's response is very predictable.

. The FRONT however you will feel, however the rear leaves don't let it get too out of hand.
