Should be fine. V6's didn't have swaybars from 98-01.

DO NOT do that

It henders traction and power distribution.

it is ok if you have control arms, as many control arms are not drilled for sway bar

Yes, there will be control arms. I would not remove stock sway bars from a stock suspension.

Mine broke coouple years ago and before I replaced it, I drove between here and Phoenix a few times, man it was scary, especially when I hit a bridge, the bump would get the rear end all floaty.

But how fast were you going? That could have something to do with it too.
