In a nutshell, no the sway bar doesn't limit droop or compression travel, the shock does. The sway bar will lesson the independence of the front suspension, so in a moment of time, it will restrict opposite movement when comparing the suspension side to side.

Which is exactly why I uninstalled it, to make the front end more independent from one another. Didn't like the ride when I hit an off camber driveway or approach. One side pulled the other down, jerking the truck, making an uncomfortable ride. In my opinion, it's a mid travel truck and I want it to ride like one.

Cool, just wanted to make sure I was clear.

Clear as mud! Assumed the shocks were internally droop-stopped to stop over droop because there are no visible droop stops on the front. Looks like I'm protected from tearing the CV boots!
