There are a couple of odd bends in the OEM because it fits around the engine/transmission. So I would be careful. It is not straight, or symmetrical.

From what I've read the front crossmember has to be loosened up and dropped enough to get the stock bar out. It can be done at home if you know what you're doing, otherwise have a good shop do it for you. If it were as ridiculously easy as the rear sway bar install, I'd have added a new front sway bar to mine ages ago!
