Hi I am just trying to figure out what comes with front sway bar package.

I have I think 4 lock nuts and just the sway bar itself.

A lot less things compared to the rear sway bar, as I am guessing it's just replacing the front that's already there.

Am I missing any parts?

Thanks, it's Whiteline product.

Cheers,
Han

I think you'll find it needs to be done by a suspension shop, unless you have the gear to remove the sub-frame :(

Thanks Timbo, yes I am aware.

Just wondering if I am missing any parts prior to taking it to the workshop to get it fitted. I have the swaybar, and 4 lock nuts, and that's it.

I don't want them all that labour costs, and realise that some parts are missing.... :0(

Any ideas? since it's a direct replacement, it shouldn't need any extra parts right?

Does anybody have instructions on this? Whiteline doesn't have installation guide for this.

I heard this is just a replacement part from original.. meaning only need the bar, and nothing else?

Has 2 holes on each end, which hole to be used? Mine is BWR18Z i think.

Which one is hard, and which one is soft??

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hole nearest each end of the bar is the softest setting.Any holes after that make the bar shorter ie stiffer.

Thanks MACCAA,

This is just a replacement so I shouldn't need any other parts correct?

I have bought this as second hand, so I wasn't sure... second hand but unused..

Don't know what's required to fit the front bar.Ring or E-mail Whiteline and ask them.
I've always found Jim at Whiteline very helpfull.

Hoyhoy.
Bud, I'm fairly sure you'll will need some other bushes, drilled out for the 22mm bar. They usually come in neoprene.

Yup found 2 x polythene (yellow looking) bushes. And Grease. Instruction sheet which is not specific to our car.

Hope that's all I need!
