No issues doing this without jacking the car up? Confused. Did you use a ramp?

No issues/jacks/ramps/lift at all.

The end links connecting the bar to the lower arms are ball joints, so as long as both wheels are somewhat level, there shouldn't be any issues.

^^^^When I di mine, over 8 years ago, I backed the "F" up on ramps. Made the job real easy.

Not sure how everyone here is correct the understeer with just the sway bar, I have just tested the limits of this around a bank and I still understeer heavy, (even with more weight on the pedal hoping to get the rear end to rotate...) I have an 08', sadly an open diff.. I will correct it soon with a square setup 19x10 265s squared. Let' hope for some netural feeling
