DIY: T1R Sway-Bar

As usual, AJR, Fitfreak.net nor I (Fit of RAGE!) is responsible for ANY damages, problems to your vehicle. Please be EXTREMELY cautious and
perform this mod at your own discretion.

I kinda got carried away and ended up in "the Zone" when i was doing this so it's kinda a crappy DIY Anyway,


1) Purchase sway bar




2) Personally, i felt that taking the cat out is VERY useful, so remove cat



3) disconnect the sway bar from the link kits. You'll need an Allen head AND a 12mm wrench.





The reason you need to do this is that if you just use a 12mm, the link kit will most likely spin and you'll never get the bolt off.

4) support the vehicle front AND back as you'll need to drop the engine/tranny cradle a little








5) Unbolt the lower control arm. There are 3 bolts. two shown here and one in front.

6)


7) Now, unbolt the cradle from the car. there are 4 bolts in total. (two were from the control arm)




8) Unbolt the hold down bracket for the swaybar and lower the engine/tranny cradle just enough to get the swaybar out


9) Now, reverse the order. Make sure that you lube up the bushings REALLY well!!!
