http://www.6gc.net/howto/install_rear_sway_bar -Christian Coomer, Administrator looking thru this site there was nothing for -> things to watch out for when installing rear sway bar.  oem vs suspension technique  oem vs suspension technique  oem vs suspension technique  o man do i need a disc conversion lol either that or sand/paint the drum.<p>   sway bar hits exhaust pipe -> must be removed. U-Clips removed from bushings.  watch for the flange as it has one nut welded to it. the other is bolt/nut combo  used wd-40 for lubricant & just removed rubber-hanger support from rear of exhaust 1 of 3 rubber hangers.  2 small screws should take care of that  my pea shooter.  fuel tank straps were removed. fuel tank dropped about 1.5" - held up by jack & wood block.  watch for these as they might get caught but shouldn't be a threat.  tilt your head for this one. much more space after removing the muffler  POOF! no more oem sway bar! it was a sinch to remove.  voila! suspension technique sway bar in place ready for install.  be liberal with the grease  these bushings are huge compared to stock  had a weird time putting this bushing U-clip on because the bolt came too close to the hump  feels great to drive gL on your install |
