Procedure

Raise the vehicle on jack stands.
Removing the rear wheels makes the job a bit easier but is not required.
Remove the two bolts/nuts on either end of the sway bar that attach the sway bar to the drop links.
Remove the bolts (4 - 2 on each side) that hold the sway bar to the torque tube carrier and remove the sway bar from the vehicle.
Installation is the reverse of removal.
