This is a matter of preference

Not really, simply the rougher the terrain, the more you will not want the sway bar.
If you're spending money on aftermarket lca's, you're biasing towards rough offroad use. The only reason to go to an aftermarket lca is to add the secondary external bypass, which minimizes roll anyways, without negatively impacting the suspensions ability to articulate as a sway bar does.

How can you say not really? The way you worded it screams personal preference. The rougher the terrain the more you will not want the sway bar. Well I want the sway bar, I like solid handling, that is my preference.

First this is definitely not the work of RPG. Second I can easily remove these but I don't have the cash for another set of shocks at the moment. Wondering how it would handle without duals and no sway bar. I hope @RPG has an answer for me. I sent the pic to corey but have not heard back from him with an answer. I removed the Powdercoating from the control arms myself. But that's on hold till I decide what I'm gonna do.

Some folks prefer sex with goats, it doesn't make it right...

It'll be fine if you are on icons, without the swaybar, it's just as stiff as stock with the sway bar. Running the icons with a sway bar really cripples the trucks ability to turn in or change lines mid corner in small to medium chop.

Running the fox 3.0 without a sway bar has more roll than stock, but you'll find the truck being upset more by terrain features (with a sway bar) than it will by the body roll (without a sway bar).

Have you ever tried running offroad without the sway bar ?
I've tried the stock fox shocks, the fox 3.0, and the icon 3.0 with and without the sway bar. And a king damped long travel.
No sway bar up front working better offroad is not a preference, its a fact.

I know exactly what you have tried, the way a person feels about their setup is 100% about preference. That's like saying travel numbers tell you everything about offroad performance, you have to trust your own butt dyno.

Damn @RLTW your always getting someone upset !!!! when we doing your breaks? @ntm I wouldn't put it past rltw iv seen him eyeball some goats!! Thanks for the info I have fox 3.0's I just want the option. This is my dd so I'd like a sway bar when not off roading. It's too easy to remove for runs. in addition to my earlier post I don't think the guy who had these before me ever mounted them on his truck. I talked to corey tonight via text and he told me to cut the tabs off and wait till Monday when they get back from sema. Really impressed with there customer service!!

The difference between the truck being planted in a rough corner, or pushing way wide due to the front end skipping around is hardly subjective.

You avoided my question, by the way.
