Installed TRD Swaybar Today - Toyota Yaris Forums

06YarisRS · 02-16-2019, 10:23 AM

The bar has been sitting around my dining room for a couple months now and since it was relatively warm today, I thought I'd throw it on. Unfortunately, it will be a couple more months before I can experience the handling improvement.

The installation was a snap. The shock bolts came off fairly easily with my electric impact gun, largely due to the rustproofing that I do regularly. I did blast the bolts with some ReleasAll about 1/2 hour before. This bar could easily have been installed with the wheels on as mentioned in another post, but I thought I'd take them off anyway.

Bolts removed:

Got this tip from another post. Install back bolts first, then roll the bar forward into position and install the front bolts. Makes for a very easy install:

Lots of antiseize.

I dropped the torque of 36 and 40 ft/lbs a touch to compensate for the antiseize:

Wheels back on:
