Drop the swaybar?
No you dont.
Just checking we're talking about the same bit of equipment, square bar just in front of the sump bulge....
The one that connects both sides of the suspension together, also commonly referred to as the stabiliser bar.

To take the motor out with the swaybar attached, the gearbox will fowl on it. Gregories manual says to do it(and thats how I've done it before), and the gearbox barely makes it over the steering rack when your pulling it out(which is further in front of the swaybar, and at the same height). Therefore I would assume it would be impossible to drop the gearbox low enough if the swaybar was still there.
