With leafs springs you are use to you can get alway with no sway bars. But even then they still can provide benefit.I think I will keep them stored, just in case I decide to sell the Jeep. Sway bars are for road, not for off road. Thanks for the advise.

With a tj you at least want a rear sway bar to help with everything from side hills, to driving faster off road driving,to alleviating car sickness when flopping around off road.
But hey you can lead a horse with no sway bars to water but you can't make him drink.
No disagreement there which is why I said there is still a benefit to running them even on a leaf spring set up. You see a lot of leaf spring set ups with no sway bars at all. I have run them in the past a few different rigs. Not saying it's right or ideal but the leafs provide some degree of lateral stability vs a coil springs.The magic of two sway bars for off-road driving can be had regardless of the type of springs.
How did yours rust out so bad?How did it get rust so bad on rear rocker panel? Did it come from the North or just from ocean salt air?
Should be fun to watch this project
For best results only install 3 of the bone jarring shocks and use a shocked that leaked all it’s fluid out for the 4th.Don't stop there. Re-gear it to 3.07's, swap a poorly geared manual trans in with a wonky clutch that only works if you don't flex the shitty frame too far and mess up the linkage, toss on a gas toilet in place of the fuel injection, and then find a 30" diameter steering wheel with a suicide knob on it. If you want the shit capability of a CJ, don't half ass it, go all ass on it. I can likely dig up some bone jarringly harsh shocks that mimic a nice leaf spring ride as well if you can't find any.
Overlander...I don't get it, babybass used to be a member and now he's a guest. Was he punished or something?
Everything about that video should tell you he's having the wrong discussion about sway bars and suspension travel.This was done on a JK, so take it for what it's worth... rear sway bar vs no rear sway bar
