Should be fine, maybe disconnect the end link as well though so the sway bar doesn't get loaded.

as above, but i'd say remove the swaybar link completely (saves it from clanging around loose at one end)


Safe really depends on your definition.

the car won't just spear off in a straight line etc, but it will probably feel drastically different around corners, rule of thumb is that a softer rear swaybar reduces oversteer (or encourages understeer) you can't really have softer than none...

But yeah, just take it easy when driving and you'll be fine.

I've dríven worse and lived.

Yeah you can drive without the swaybar at all. It will just handle quite differently.


Removing all together is best for a temporary measure since that way you won't have loose ends etc unde rthe car to catch on stuff.
