Front Swaybar Qustion

[petethepug]

It’ll drive with the sway bar off but expect some crazy stuff to occur when you least expect it.

it is easiest to do it with both front wheels off the ground, if you are doing it alone loosen one end link up to almost completely unbolted, then do the other side the same, then you can go under and unbolt the center d brackets, then finish unbolting either end link for complete removal.
reinstall would be in reverse, slightly bolt up one end link, then the other side, install d brackets and then tighten it all up.
doing it that way is like having a helper hold one end.
if you are going to be welding on it I would just take the bar off wherever is convenient first, then you can put the wheels back on and drive it wherever.
people drive around with a end link broken all the time and don't even know it, it's not going to make it hard to drive or damage anything.
if you had to make a emergency swerve on the road without it then it may dip more (in the front) to one side or another

Is it necessary to remove the wheels to unload the assembly?
Doing something else I tried to loosen link bolts with the wheels on ramps and they didn't budge so I'll try it on jackstands, but is it necessary to remove the wheels to unload the assembly?

no, you can just turn the wheels out on the side being accessed, just a matter of how hard or easy you want it to be. you just want the wheels off the ground so the suspension is unloaded. those endlink bolts can be tight or may even just break off, dirt and grime and water+rust, may as well just have new ones on hand when it's time to put the bar back on.
