Default Dropping Rear Sway Bar - Question

I'm going to be doing some maintenance and some mods including removing the exhaust. I plan to have the car up on wheel cradles. My question is will the rear sway bar drop when unbolting the middle mounts when the weight of the car is on the suspension? Or do I need to take the weight off of the wheels?

Thanks
