Why not just remove the sway bar completely?

Oem front sway bar is 23mm. I was thinking about something Shine suggested about swirvies; basically, take the linkage off. The problem is that in the straits she'll rattle pretty bad tearing up other components.
What if... you keep your 23mm sway bar and use, lets say, a 19mm linkage. Sure they'll wear out faster, but would it push your center of gravity back? And, would 19mm linkage even bolt on?

Why would you say that? Just drive carefully. lol.
Maybe zip-ties. Or duct tape. If duct tape fails reinforce it with wire coat hangers. That should keep it out of the way.
Seriously though, Just find a way to strap it out of the way with some play on it. And why would it ruin it as far as daily driving duties. Drove a room mates Sonoma in Michigan when I was in college. He busted the front stabilizer links while "off roading", and we kept driving it. Noticed no difference.

Tie rod end was bad, too. Replaced, BJ's, Links, and Tie Rod Assemblies.
on another note: Even if your print out for alignment is in spec. this does mean she'll travel strait and narrow. when you get an alignment at the very least ask them to keep in speck; also, to have r/l #s matching and for shizicks sake center the wheel.
