I thought i give it a try to install myself looks straight forward bolt on. Anything i should know?

 

It is straight forward. I found the hardest part to be removing and installing the dust shield without breaking the pop in screw things.

 

That and keeping the sand outta my eyes. Had what felt like a pebble just fall in the right one

 

haha, oh yeah, that too.

 

Just make sure you have it sitting on the tires when you hook up the end-links. I put mine on ramps with the back end on jack stands.

 

I would suggest making your own spacers to limit the side-to-side movement of the center section. In addition, I would consider buying clamps or a split collar to again restrain the side-to-side movement of the center section. This is especially important if you have larger body shocks. Also, check for clearance between the plastic boots on the steering rack and the arms of the sway bar. Almost everyone I have talked to have had an issue with it.


just my .02.

 

I thought the brackets that drop from the frame were supposed to come off? A pic in the instructions showed the mounts directly to the frame. Guess that wasnt a pic of an s2000.
I am not the auto mechanic but i gotta try some times and this looked easy.

 

My Gendron came with spacers to keep the center section in place. It was a simple install. The dust shield is easy to remove if you have a trim removal tool. Even the baseboard pry bars from home depot work. Just push the center pin into each clip first, then they pull right out.

Don't forget to TIGHTEN YOUR ENDLINKS periodically. Even the nylon nuts have a tendency to back off with that kind of stress.

 

I have the same bar as Jeff (thanks again btw) and love it. I do know with the recent shipments of bars Bill sent out, the bolt that connects the endlink to the arm is too short. One fix is to have Bill send you some shaved arms. The other is to get creative and find some different bolts.

 

Since I should be getting a bar from him that was made this week, I'll know if he corrected this glitch with his last batch. I should receive it by the end of the week, and have it installed sometime next week.
