After some research I found out that Old Man Emu makes a fitment kit that replaces this support brace with one that has much more clearance. So I decided to tackle the install last night.
As you can see by the silver wear marks my swaybar has been making contact (OEM on top and the replacement OME support bracket on bottom):
Here is a before and after picture once I was done with the install. You can see the swaybar now has almost an inch of clearance. Bonus points that I also gained some skidplate clearance back since I don't need to use bracket spacers anymore:
Now I need to hit some dirt to test everything out!

I hate to bring this post back, but I made an account here just to ask you about the work you did. Did this kit come with all the bolts to install? Or do I need to fond an m6 and the other hardware? All I need is that bracket just like you - as I am now running a new icon kit that just started rubbing the swaybar. I'm not confident in my welding/cutting abilities + plan on getting RCI steel skids soon to replace what I have , so if this bracket does the trick I'm going to hop on it.
