Title: quick question on rear swaybar
Post by: the_intimidator03 on January 18, 2010, 02:48:58 AM
I just wanted to ask this before i run off tomorrow to tackle this.  would i have much issue installing my rear swaybar with my car on ramps and leave the rear suspension loaded? 
The rear swaybar is from a turbo coupe and its going on my 86 cougar 5.0

Nope, no problem other than accessing the sway bar bolts.

They are on the outside of the arms, and you might be fighting with the ramps for access to get to them from underneath as you won't be able to get to them from the outside with the wheels on.
