Sway Bar Installtion
Just got my new front and rear swaybar form Vette Brakes. I read the instruction about the installation but have two questions:
1. Should I wait until the engine is back in the car to put them in so when I adjust it will have the correct ride height?
2. Is the grease supplied to be used on the main bushings or on all the bushings?
Thanks

1. Yes. If I were doing an engine change there wouldn't be enough front end left to atach anything to.
2. All of the bushings, at all contact points to metal.
Can we make the next test True / False? i do so much better when I have a 50 percent chance of being right.

Okie Dokie:
3. Will applying this grease become a routine maintance? True/False
4. After the bar has been attached only to the frame and held in the level position, when let go the bar should move downwards on its own weight?
True/False
I am sure I can come up with more after I get a semi good nights sleep!

!. c. Don't know yet. Ask me again in 12 months. My poly has only been on for 2 months and most of that was sitting around while I did a cam change.
2. Yes. If the 2 brackets to the frame are aligned correctly and the poloy does not have excessive friction on the bar it should drop.
See. I can even mess up on a true / false test. :jester
nighty, night.
