Should I remove it?

[baddog671]

Today I was driving home from work in the Metro and approaching the stop light I heard a metalic thump on the underage of the car. I was like WTF happend now? I was only about 2 miles from the house so I continued the drive and everytime I hit a bump in the road the metalic thump happend again. So, I got home expecting the worst and after laying down behind the car, found out my sway bar mounting brackets fell off. Well, they were still attached to the bar, but rust eventually ate its way through. The ends that attach to the arms are still there, so it pivets and smacks off the arms during bumps.

What would be the negatives of removing this? I have one upfront too and I know the combination of different thicknesses and such can play with the steering causing understeer and oversteer. Keep in mind Im not cornering hard, just dont want to slide off the road one day.

I dont want to go through the hassle of finding new mounts and stuff and welding it all back together, so you think it'll be ok? Maybe it'd lighten it up about 10lbs...
