And with a 4x4's extra height I'm suprised...
on my 02 4x2 I felt the LEAN around corners...
(but I WAS coming from a jeep 5.9 limited that was smaller, fater, and tighter around corners)
yes, acceptable, but REAL WOW after adding the $135 hellwig...

my 03 4x4 Ex has a small stock rear bar and I will swap it out for the hellwig one of these days, but just haven't got around to it yet...

Maybe you changed shocks or added air bags to make a diff ???

Well, I did put on Bilstein shocks, but that is all.

Let me restate that I drive very slow (compared to most people) and I just don't push the vehicle hard. I like to think that I drive defensively. I'm more concerned about my brakes than about making more power. Old ladies in Buicks regularly beat me from a light.

I'm sure that if I put a anti-sway bar on I would be very happy, but I just don't feel the need for it. I've never felt unsafe in my X or felt like it couldn't handle a turn. It also helps that I live in a sparcely populated area. I don't have to drive hard to keep up with traffic as there is not much traffic here.
