Can anybody tell me if you have to remove the spare tire assembly to replace the rear anti-sway bar.

No, you do not have to, but it does make it a bit easier, especially if you're doing it on your back. If you have a lift, it's not so much an issue.

If nothing else, remove the rear bracket assembly, the part with the lock. The rubber upper part, or cover, will then be floppy enough to get at the stabilizer bar. It's sandwitched between the upper cover and the frame. As Joel said, it's just so much easier!
