rd sways installed last night! INSANE!

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!

did u lower or remove the exhaust, or just leave it in? how long did it take to do the rear?

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.

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...
