Rear Swaybar Install

Hey guys,

I've searched around here and couldn't find what I was looking for. I got a general idea on how the install is done on this but I'm still not a 100% sure. Can someone describe how this is done and with some pics if at all possible?

Thanks in advance!!

fairly easy to do the rear. basically all it is what vik posted. take out end link bolts before raising and end links (mark which side of end link is which because they are different angles when flipped-happened to me), put jackstands, remove rear wheels, take off mid bushings, take out old swaybar, install new bar w/poly bushings and lube the bushings. tighten mid bushing clamps to correct tq., and end links to correct tq. done
