this videos how to repair the back
bushings on the on the sway bar so the
sway bar you can see it's kind of
disconnected right next to my channel
locks there and then the bottom bolt is
I'm trying to get off right now
the bottom bolt here is a 15 millimeter
on the stock bushings the replacement
bushings are like six box it's a 14
millimeter basically how that works well
nut comes off and all these are in parts
right here so you can see the half of it
will go here half that will go here and
then the other half will go up and above
and below the sway bar end so it's kind
of cool so I got the other bushing out
and I've disassembled the entire bushing
this coming like little parts like that
so I put the top part in and we'll slide
this part up and on to it then that
metal circle thing right there then I'll
start with the bottom part and then kind
of assemble the whole thing like that
okay so the bushings simple down there
and I just got tighten up the bottom it
should bring the whole thing into into
sync
then the Bush in place pretty
straightforward pretty simple okay so
we're starting with the other Shing
we're going to break a bar what you can
do is you can take a wrench put it on
the top so it kind of leaned against the
tire back there as you can see and take
your ratchet attach it to the bottom end
right there and you can extend your
ratchet with just a regular wrench
attached onto the end like that and you
can wrote the whole thing rotate the
whole thing a lot easier with that much
more leverage and it keeps the top bolt
from spinning on because of that other
wrench over there so works up pretty
well
okay so this bushing wasn't spinning the
top nut and bottom that's been
independently of each other so what I
did is I took a pair of these a locking
pliers and I clamped it on the end of
the bolt there then on the other end up
there on the far side you can see I have
my ratchet I use my same no wrench
extending trick and extended the reach
of it and with the clamp on the bottom
and extended reach on the top I was able
to twist the top of that off as well
