will sway bar help with wheel stuffing?

i am currently running with out the rear sway bar, and since i have done the spacer kit and larger tires the drivers side, rubs the gas tank nozzle cover, will the sway bar prevent the tires from stuffing completly?

i took my rear off and it drives soo much better on road. the off road performance isnt that bad either but it is limited. i dont rub on the back, but i have the daystar bumstops that Steve Schaefer sends with his lift kit.

is that an indication that you need a panard bar drop to go with your lift? (if im thinking about that right?)

hmm, yeah i would assume that the panhard bar would help with that,
here is a pic of it with the swaybar and without.

with:


without:


i did not notice any rubbing so if it did it was barely any. not close to the gas tube or anything like that. i dont have a pic of it flexing hte drivers side without the swaybar. but it flexes pretty much the same.

I have 265/70r17's which is like a 32.2" or something like that

When I pulled the sawy bar off my 95 I didnt noticed a whole lot of change, so I left it off. Its a very small sway bar, I'd leave it off, it will be slighty better offroad...
