What is that dang thing supposed to do? is it some kind of silly attempt at giving us a factory traction bar/anti axle rap kit? Can I take it off? cause I think it is responsible for making an annoying clunking type noise when going over speed bumps.

thanks,
 






Trash it!! I have heard it was supposed to help with vibration at high speeds, but I took mine out and noticed no difference (I also installed Gabriel VSX shocks at the same time)
 






Jeff's right, get rid of it.
It also severly limits you rear end articulation.
