Well, what I would do then is get the front end up on jack stands (on the frame) so that the suspension is at full extension. First, be sure all the mounting hardware for the sway bar is fully tightened. Then mark the end of the bar so there is at least 1/2" to 1" still hanging out the end, and cut them there. At least that way you know they will not come out of the bushing when you Dukes of Hazzard the next bridge!
