    hi yall I've finally gotten around to doing an upgrade on my suspension and i have bought myself a front sway bar i was just wondering on how to remove the old one I've undone the mounting brackets holding it to the car but i can't seam to wiggle it free
    as it is impossible to remove it from the 2 hole it passes through in the frame i was wondering should i remove these two brackets as well or is there another way pics included

    Ya have to take off the caster arm brackets, the things that has the holes for the swaybar. It's like 4 big bolts each side, you can see to in that first pic.

    You didn't need to take out the caster arms and everything else too

    when i put in my front sway bar i had to pull heaps hard to one side to put the castor rod brackets back on obviously cuz there was more force trying to pull against it. so do what i learned after undoing and re doing up every bolt 3 times. don't tighten the bracket bolts til they are all started. lol. dam non drop out castor rod brackets
