Default Sway bar links

My rough country sway bar links are rubbing on the unibody what do I do? I already ground the bolt and it still rubs.

Oh boy let the flaming start to the guy who said front sway bar is useless...

But
I have my sway bar links hitting the springs. Guessing that's not right either...

Cut em both out. Less weight = better gas mileage. Who cares about body roll anyhow!

The front one is semi useful... The rear one on the other hand does next to nothing. You probably wouldn't even know it was gone. I have both off my 95 and it's now driven daily. No problem.
