When you have most of the weigh on rear axle - stiff front sway bar will lift front wheel off the road.
Please explain how this would happen. I thought only the springs provide the lift... sway bars from my understanding do not provide a down ward force (which is requited for lift.)
I know sway bars transfer force from one tire to the other in an uneven situation (as in a roll), but it is not in the direction that would provide lift... (are not the force when a sway bar engages in an upward direction and only on the high side that is affected by the lower side?) ... or am I missing something??
Couple samples.
Obviously not too many TC will go in such heavy terrain, but then not too many pickups have so much suspension travel.
The wheel in the air is hold either by heavy sway bar, or it will go all the way to suspension bumpers.
Than you don't buy dually to carry 2500lb camper and when you go to 12-footers TC - no member reported having one with COG in front of the axle.
This is real life and Ford making unreal recommendations shows the ignorance.
