jammer

It has been several years since I did it .... but as I recall I removed the battery on the pass. side and then on the driver's side I believe I unscrewed the the fuse block but didn't remove any wires....

I removed the plastic cap that cover the swaybar arm where it goes into the body and is held by the big rubber swaybar bushing.

The hard part was getting to the cover for the bushing. It is held in, I believe by two 13mm nuts (trying to recall here).

Once I got that off I was able to move the swaybar up enough to dislodge the big rubber bushing. I used a lot of silicone spray and a stout dowel forcing it to move so I could turn it and get to the split.

Installing wasn't much easier but again a lot of patience paid off.

Once done I was very impressed by how much flatter the car turned and generally better the compliance of the front-end going over bumps.

The rear bushings are a piece of cake in comparison.
