I don't run a sway bar on my truck, but it depends on the type of wheelin you do and how much you will modify the front suspension.  If you are not going to put a cross member and rear springs or waggies or whatever to move your axle foreward the thing to do is extend the two bars that go to the axle and make some kind of quick disconnect so you can have a good ride on road and a more flexy suspension off road.   :turtle:  :usa:

I wanna eventually add a torque arm to my front axle to eliminate brake steer.

Jack8542's idea is right on the money.

I took the sway bar off mine and the torque arm to get more flex it helped greatly but I just use mine offroad and maybe 1500 miles a year on the road removing all that made the ride and handling on the road suck it sways real bad to fix this I am putting sliders on it sliders take place of the shakle for the leaf spring it is a box looking thing your leaf spring bolts into and slides back and forth in it the shakle is were you get all the sway because it can move side to side the slider holds the spring up close to the frame and does not allow the side to side motion but still allows the same amount of flex therefore you have your flex and good handling onthe road

Why would you?  I've found that with a lift you can't even tell if you have one installed or not.  Dump it.
Some idiots are too busy knowing it all, to ever learn anything...
