Just wondering, once you guys have your cars all together, how do you disconnect your rear and front sway bars? For the rear do you unscrew the ball or pop the plastic link off of the ball? For the front, do you just go from under the car and pry the sway bars from each other?? Probably a stupid question but just want to make sure. Thanks.
Rich, that's not a stupid question.
When I put the car on the Hudy board to check tweak or droop settings, I unscrew the ball of the linkage connected at the rear bottom arm with a 3 mm ball tip allen (great when accessing at an angle). The same way too for the shocks. Popping out the plastic ball cups off the ball will wear it out.
As for the front sway bars, just loosen one side of the H9 (3 x 4mm) grub screw (refer to Step 1.3 on page 4 of the manual) on one of the arms. Not necessary to do it on both sides. Take a nose plier to grip and push / slide that loosened sway bar to the side to "disconnect" the ball and cup assembly. That's all to it !
When you want to connect the front sway bars back again, push the sway bar back in to form and connect the sway bar ball and cup assembly.
