on mazdas, nissans, toyotas and several others, if you run bags, the factory sway bars gotta go. i lucked out. the sway bar mounts outside of the control arm, and i still have mine on there.

hydraulic cylinders take up less space, so you may be able to keep the sway bar in those cases.

pros/cons
with the sawy bar on there, you get less body roll, however if you want carzy side to side, youd want to take it off.

yea typically the sway bar mount has to be cut off, but in some instances ppl put the airbag towards the back of the arm hanging out so they can keep the sway bar mount. im going to make new mounts so i can run mine again, also a sway bar for the rear, just for kicks

edit: plus it handles better, it gives the antiroll of a 2link in the back with a rear sway bar, but putting the stress on the sway bar rather than the axle and suspension tabs/bushings

Plan on keeping mine,not stock, mounts from rear, Quickor bars. Mike made the a-arms so too keep the bar as is.
