Default Pulling off B&B bullets

Well I pulled the mufflers easy enough and the driver side secondary pipe slid through, but the passenger side second portion of the pipe won't slide over.

Do I need to drop the sway bar, it's looks like I can get it out if I do or maybe just the top bolts?

Yes, if you drop the sway bar it should buy you the clearance you need to get it around the rear sub frame.

Yes, undo the bracket and bushing and then swing the sway bar down - it should give you the clearance you need to get the exhaust pipe out.
