Internal sway bar... stupid or possible?

My bus has coilovers up front. That handles the suspension. I still have a few (3) leaves in each torsion tube to connect the control arms to.
My idea is this, Take out the leaves and replace them with some solid round stock. Don't use the anchor point in the center of the beam but allow the bar in each tube to twist against the other side in cornering... this is basically what a sway bar does. I could even devise a way to preload the bar but don't think it would even be necessary.
Thoughts?
