installation of sways
has anyone installed sways on a lowered car?
i ordered the comptech sways and i never installed sways before. i did see the DIY section. i was just wondering how hard it would be with a lowered car.

I did it from the instructions from the DIY... I had found a couple of another site and just read them all. It was harder than expected but not that hard overall but my car wasn't lowered.

i aint the best car person. but everything i learned was from this forum. i did my suspension( springs/Shocks) and Intake.
now time for the sways and the oil. the hardest thing is the clearence room also i gotta buy a torque wrench.

it doesnt matter if your car is lowered, you will have it up on jack stands, so clearance wont be a issue.. if you already did your springs, this will be a cake walk

oh ok just afriad. i did the springs by jacking the car up, 1 wheel at a time and it took forever. ;( not to mention. i did all my work in a 1 car garage cuz its cold outside.
do i really have to purchase a torque wrench? i never used one before. where is the best place to buy one? sears or a automotive store?

is it ok if i remove the sways and then install them a week later. my package comes monday and i think its easier just to remove them now and install them when they come. less work and time.
