I have a question for yall. So suleman and I installed my swaybar last summer. We used grease from brake check (suleman's job) on the bushings and it worked great. Well fast forward to winter time and I can start hearing the sway bar rubbing against the bushings (or possibly the exhaust hanger, but I didn't hear that before so im assuming its the first). Any special grease yall would recommend that can withstand some time

Quote from: "timot_one"
Front sway bar is a motherfucker if you don't have the right tools and equipment.  If you are not comfortable with lowering the front lower sub frame, then you should pay someone else to do this for you.

I have car stands, and a large jack ... what else would I need?

Am I getting into something dangerous here?

Yes, it is something you should not do in your driveway. It is best to do at a shop that has lifts to do the front sway bar. The rear on the other hand can be down in the comfort of your garage or driveway. What Tim says is true on the front sway bar. It is a pain in the ass to install. I have done the install, and if you don't have a lift or proper tools, it can and will be a dangerous install.

Anyone got the part number for the end links?

I am thinking mine might be seized because of age...

I looked here, wasn't exactly sure which exact piece is the endlink for the sway

Are they these?

Should I buy an acura tl rear sway bar that corrolates with th same year vehicle as mine? I have an 05 coupe, so should I buy the 05 tl rear sway bar? Or does the year of the sway bar not make a difference? Also if newer model sway bars will fit my vehicle will there be an advantage to having an 07 rsb over an 05.

I got the 07 TL-S RSB. I have an 03. So, like Mike said I think it just depends on what size you want.

thanks for clearing that up, and is $70 too much to spend on the tl 20mm rsb. The dealer i went to wanted about 70 for rsb, bushings and what not. I looked online and it was about $60 shipped for everything. I just want to make sure im getting a good deal
