98 XJ sport
3"RC lift
Quick disconnects up front

Is it necissary to keep my rear sway bar on? i would imagine you would get more travel with it off(not like there is much i can get out of a 3"). This is my DD but i dont mind a little bit of body roll, as long as it is not exsessive. Can i take the rear sway bar off?

Almost everyone takes the rear bar off. If you tow a trailer, you may want to keep it, if not, you'll never notice it's gone on the road. And it helps a lot off road not having it.

Yes you can remove it. Chances are you wont even notice that its gone.

Sway bars are the devil! (for leaf springs, that is)

I just put a 3 inch kit on my 98 sport, and I removed the rear sway bar entirely. I didn't notice any difference in handling and I got a cool set of brackets to make into bar pin eliminators to boot!!
