driving without torque rods 200

will remove my 240 torque rods and bring to shop to press out old bushings and put in polyuretahne and put back.

1. is it safe to drive a few blocks with out the two torque rods? no freeway cruising or anything like that.

2. if both rods are removed , will the load of the wagon pull hte rear axle backwards away from the from and making reinstalling the rods impossible under load. hence, a lift will be required to reinstall?

3. will question number two occur also if I remove the pan hard rod? making the pan hard rod impossible to install under regular load?
