PSA first: DO NOT BUY THIS ROUGH COUNTRY STEERING KIT!
Reason: The tie rod ends failed very quickly and Quadratec (they have been great throughout this ordeal) has been trying since early November to get the tie rod ends warrantied, with no response from Rough Country. This has led to an interesting set of problems that I can expand upon if anyone is interested.

Question: If I flip the tie rod, will I definitely have to cut the sway bar mounts, or can I get away with some creative grinding? I do have one offset tie rod end on the driver side.
Also, if I have to cut them off, will I be able to drive on freeway without a sway bar until I can get the relocation brackets welded in?
