Hi All,
changed out a long time broken bar on my '99 yesterday with the Dorman kit. Not too bad. Biggest challenge was the U bushing bolts at each frame. The rears were a tight fit for the tools - I used a shallow 15mm and or a 15mm wratcheting box end. Bar came out the right side without removing tie rod end - although that would have made it a bit easier. New bar is heavier and somewhat larger diameter. Kit comes with everything new so I used a power side cutter to just cut off the swaybar links on each side and then just center punched what was left down and out.

I did have the luxury of working on a lift, but the ability to be under the car was not really necessary. Just nice to work standing. Very do-able on the ground.

Oh, and I chose to change it out as both ends had failed and were smackin' around making noise.
