I just got my CR anti-sway bars (front & rear). I don't think it'll be too difficult (haven't even looked at this in my shop manual yet) but thought I'd check for any DIYs. If none, I'll try to take some pics and put one together.

 

There's really nothing to it. Should just be one or two bolts on the end link, then one bolt on each side of the sway bar. Very easy assuming they aren't seized up.

 

the service manual is really good for this.

 

You need an allen and a box wrench for the endlinks. You need a socket and maybe a box wrench for the frame mounting points (there are two bolts). In the front you need to take off the plastic under tray "splash guard". Couple bolts and a couple clips. The rear is very easy. The front is a little more time consuming. I think you need to take the front wheels off, you may not need to take the rears off.

 

Thanks guys. I kinda figured it was pretty straight forward given no earlier DIYs. I have to wait for another front & rear bushing (ordered one each, thought they came in pairs), so don't know if it'll get done this weekend. I'll take pics as I go and post them in case someone else is interested.

 

14 mm socket and box wrench. 5 mm Allen wrench. Front should take an hour or so. Rear about 45 minutes. The service manual says you need to remove the exhaust to get the rear bar out. I removed one wheel and moved it out the side. Fairly straight forward.

 

Front endlinks can be a PITA if you drive in salt. We had to cut one off with a grinder....

 

not a how to but here are some pics from my sway bar install.

i had to lower the exhaust to install the rear sway. all i did was remove the metal cross bar, slipped the rubber hangers off their mounts and allowed the mufflers to hang down.

 

Anyone know if when you install CR sways on an 04 if you need to replace anything else, i.e. the bushings and mounts? Did they change anything for the larger bar?
