I’m installing a dustyDawg carrier on the p5
I’m running 25” ripsaws on 12” rims no spacers
Do you all think I should put the sway bar back on do to the tall racks
This is how it sits now pic 1

You're good IMO. You've only went up an inch, actually 1/2", and with 5+2's probably sitting at 53". Obviously your COG is going to vary based on what you put on that top rack. The sway bar has nothing to do with it really, it doesn't dictate the tipping point, just how much roll you feel before getting there. That's a good thing depending on how you drive and it doesn't look like you're setting it up as a corner slinger?

Doesn't take long to put back on.

Be Safe -- TEST ALL Sinarios ---- S-Bar -- ON & OFF -- EMPTY & LOADED -- see what fits you riding style.
If you best friend is the cargo Be Safe --- they Would Do the Same for you.

Our dogs wouldn't have anything to do with that, they think they have to ride in the front seat! HA!
LOL ya finally got the wife to start going with me. She’s not Sharing the front seat with the dog and I don’t think I can train the wife to sit in the back in the new carrier 🤔😂 so the my dog gets a new seat. We will see how it goes 👍

That settles it with both BEST Friends on board Test & Test some more.
Don't want any Hospital or Vet bills. ( cuts into accessory funds )

The math says it will tip a sooner with -- Added Weight Above Center of Gravity.
Especially -- with Sway Bar OFF -- Easier for Weight to get In Motion & Stay in Motion -- till gravity takes over.

Good set of WE Adjustable SHOCKS Would Help when adjusted for your needs.
Hint to the the best friend that has money it's a Needed Safety item -- she could get you for Easter -- or you get for her.

Spent all those years training her & Don't want to train another one or is that what she said I forget.
