Sway Bar Install

Anyone know where I can get a progress swaybar installed under $100 in MD.
Quotes have varied from $125-200

I called Elite, Meinieke, J and D auto wont do it.


Thanks

Agreed. Maybe we can have an install meet one day with all the locals. I don't mind lending a hand.

Just,

I tried PB and can't get the endlinks removed. I need to get it up on a lift for extra leverage or they just may just be seized its an 06 over 80k

Took me less than 20 minutes on my 2G TL, but I suppose the mounting points are different on your 3G. Do you have a breaker bar - you need leverage OR heat.

Mine were rusted to shit as well and wouldn't break loose. I ended up having great luck with vise grips, took a while and a lot of force to clamp them tight enough but they finally gave. In went the Progress RSB and new endlinks.

If you can wait until it's not so cold out I wouldn't mind doing it for you if you'd be up for driving to York.
