hello bonne club members!
I got a prob and i have had it for a while, the front right side of my sway bar, where it connects to the suspension is cracked, to be exact the crack which is now broken when i checked. it is still connected but one of the forks is broken, heres some picutres of the bar, my question is can i replace this front bar and hardware without moving the exahuset down pipe or rack and pinon or any other major component? any suggestions would be greatly appriciated,
PS i have searched for this topic "sway bar" and come up with the preformace upgrades and the rear replacement........ but i have not seen my issue
Thanks,
Nickyyyyyyyyyyyyy

thanks for the fast replies.... is pulling that sway bar out of there going to be an insane job or can it be done within a few days using a floor jack and jack stands?

If its not too hard to pull I might have a FE2 front swaybar available for a small fee. From my 1997 SSE parts car.
Be sure to get polyurethane end-links for the reinstallation. You WILL NOT regret it.
