Sway Bar

**slpgto2004** · 10-01-2007, 11:20 AM

Did anyone install a SLP Heavy Duty sway bar? Because I just got mine today and the instructions suck and would I have to drop the rear and would i need to use a lift?
help please because i just ordered and did a lot of things to my GTO in the last past month I put headers and intake and new spark plugs and need to put this on yet

it is in and only about an hour.

VERY easy. Put the car up on jack stands use the jack to support the rear diff take the 4 13mm bolts lower the rear and replace old with new.. You might be able to get it done faster but i tried to do it without dropping the rear first.
All bolts are 13mm. For the sway bar bushing mounts i used a 1/4 ratchet and short socket. Let me know how it goes...

Went for a ride and still have wheel hop!!!!!!!!!!!

Ran my best time last night. The wheel hop is still there but make sure your drag bags are way up. Without them it would be no difference.
