    I have a 2004 Tundra and the front sway bar has come apart from the frame. Would it be ok to just remove the sway bar?

    I drove around with my stabilizer links rotted in 1/2 and disconnected from the sway bar for like 4 months before I replaced them. You'll be okay unless you drive like Mario Andretti through hairpin turns.

    Yes. Pics would help decide if the vehicle is about to disintegrate beneath you. May have bigger issues than the sway bar.
