It is there to help with the engine staying in place during high torque instances. Prevents motor twisting too much when under heavy load...

The stay cables geometry is not favorable to any serious level of side to side torque control. It's primary function is to keep the fan from hitting the radiator during heavy braking or the jeep hitting something straight forward.
