yeah I had similiar problems too, the end of your sway bar where it joints the spindle are bolted together via a rubber bushing. The rubber bushing can be royal pain, espcially if it gotten beaten up. Replacing the bushings alone is royal pain since no one are make the brushings in the states. However, noltec.com.au is making them and they're in Australia. Their prices for these stupid bushings cost about $90 shipped so you might as well buying a new bar such as ST and it still equiped with polyuranthe brushes.

So to answer your question, just make sure to slow down while making turns or you could lose balance and the car could easily tilt over and freak you out. Don't worry it happened to me all of the time when I first got the car. When you got some times and moneys, make sure you get that bar replaced NOT fixed. The rear ends replacement is a piece of cake, shouldn't takes no more than 30 mins but paying for it is not fun.
