Progress Sway Bar

***calircr*** · 11-28-2006, 04:28 PM

Hey Everyone,

I was just wondering...after installing the sway bar, do I need to get an alignment done or will the install not mess with the alignment at all.

Thanks in advance

It wont mess with your alignment. It's a really simple install actually.

nope... just make sure you gease up the bushings really good.

I'd recommend some beefier endlinks also.

I am putting a si sway bar on my lx. I have heard that you dont grease the rubber bushings when you install the new bar. Is that corect?

Always grease bushings, if not they squeek!!!

for rubber bushings you don't need to grease it but for urethane ones you do.

What's wrong with a little squeaking?

Off topic, but we have a 100km/h+ wind warning and its blowing snow like a MOFO... woooow....

Anywho, very important to grease those bushes up.
