http://www.6gc.net/howto/install_rear_sway_bar -Christian Coomer, Administrator looking thru this site there was nothing for -> things to watch out for when installing rear sway bar. ![]() oem vs suspension technique ![]() oem vs suspension technique ![]() oem vs suspension technique ![]() o man do i need a disc conversion lol either that or sand/paint the drum.<p> ![]() ![]() sway bar hits exhaust pipe -> must be removed. U-Clips removed from bushings. ![]() watch for the flange as it has one nut welded to it. the other is bolt/nut combo ![]() used wd-40 for lubricant & just removed rubber-hanger support from rear of exhaust 1 of 3 rubber hangers. ![]() 2 small screws should take care of that ![]() my pea shooter. ![]() fuel tank straps were removed. fuel tank dropped about 1.5" - held up by jack & wood block. ![]() watch for these as they might get caught but shouldn't be a threat. ![]() tilt your head for this one. much more space after removing the muffler ![]() POOF! no more oem sway bar! it was a sinch to remove. ![]() voila! suspension technique sway bar in place ready for install. ![]() be liberal with the grease ![]() these bushings are huge compared to stock ![]() had a weird time putting this bushing U-clip on because the bolt came too close to the hump ![]() feels great to drive gL on your install |

QUOTE(JoKeRkId613 @ May 21, 2006 - 9:41 PM) [snapback]436446[/snapback] what's better? oversteer or understeer. i dont care about fwd/rwd, i want to know about which one's better on the celica. im kinda lazy to search and am really just looking for a very brief definition of both and why one is better than the other for daily driving. thanks. p.s. im planning on putting on both front and rear sways, if that helps. all depends on how you drive. cars were made with more understeer/push to make for safer driving. QUOTE(Valo666 @ May 22, 2006 - 12:18 AM) [snapback]436502[/snapback] hmm...this could be a problem for me. My exhaust doesnt unbolt..its pretty much welded as one peice from my headers back. theres probably a way to manover it around the exhaust pipe took me a while to figure out that it's almost impossible...gL on that one. QUOTE(Speeder @ May 23, 2006 - 3:31 PM) [snapback]437125[/snapback] What about the horisontal brace between the swaybar and damper? Is shis the OEM part? Is seems so weak... I have just put on D2Racing coilovers, and this will be my next uppgrade. the swaybar endlink? it should be fine. never had one totally bend/break on me and i drive damn hard. |
