Lots of body roll? Looked under... oh sh-! LOL
Yea my 8 has seemed to have quite a bit of body roll in the front, ever since I got it, for a car... I wondered why it would lean so much on heavy cornering, and finally I looked under it... THE SWAY BAR IS DISCONNECTED, LOL.

Why on earth would anyone ever disconnect their swaybar? Its not like they are doing rock-crawling with the damn thing, haha. Now I gotta find out what size nut the sway link uses, so I can goto napa and grab one! Anyone know what size it is off hand?

It's a sign to upgrade the sways.
