I got the front/rear Suspension techniques swaybar set, and have hopes of installing the rear in about 2 weeks (with KYB AGX). Does anyone have words of wisdom (or better yet pictures) of how they mount? The instructions seem a bit short & vague...

Make sure the weight of the car is on the wheels when you install the bars. Use drive-on ramps to lift the car. If you don't the bars will bind putting stress on the suspension, and the ride will suffer.

The rear bar requires that you drill holes in the forward-facing sections of the torsion beam. The instructions indicate that they be drilled from under the inside of the car. I found that my drill did not fit to allow drilling a horizontal hole. I carefully marked the position on the outside by raising and lowering the sway bar (which is already attached to the beam) while looking from the outside of the car.

There should be no stress on the bar ends, and you may have to juggle the position of the center mounts and/or links to achieve this.

Good luck with ST sway bars, heard they were a biatch to install.
