did u lower or remove the exhaust, or just leave it in? how long did it take to do the rear?
rd sways are to an e34 as birth control pills are to sex
the difference is incredible...
getting the rear sway out was a BITCH with the exhaust in
the way, but i got em in and medium (of 3) position in the front
and full stiff (of 2) position in the rear combined with my summer
kumho 712's @ 235 , 255 made my car handle incredible welll
as i pushed it on the off/on ramps it felt really really stable, almost
as if it was taunting me "is this the fastest u can go?" hehheheh
it felt so confidence inspiring!

i tried for 30min to wiggle the thing out in the end i lowered the exhaust and
removed the brace on teh passenger side...
'twas a pain in the arse
dude how much did u pay for them if u dont mind me asking? sorry if u already said it in another post...
i drove up to bavauto and showed them RD's website which had the
lowest price i could find, told 'em to price match it and they did!
$390
mine were so loud when i put them in that a pedestrian commented to me. it drove me nuts. everytime the car goes on the lift for an oil change i try to hit them. the squeak always comes back. that really been the only drawback with them, otherwise i've been quite content. sounds like you are too. congrats
I agree, driving over bumps in the city the rear bushes squeak. oh well.
Yeah, urethane bushes squeak like mad if they're not lubed. Still; they shouldn't be that loud.Originally Posted by Jason
Unbolt them, and get inside them with a good, thick silicone grease (NOT petroleum; it will dissolve the bushing) - and they should shut up.
I've got all urethane in my sway bar bushings, and I've never heard a peep from them. Maybe I'm lucky.
i actually didn't have any grease avail so i put
some vasoline was what i used....no squeaks
yet...
when i go down there to retorque everything
i'll re grease em with something good...
