How do you put the rear sway bar in? I have a factory bar that I need to put back in but I cant seem to get it from one side of the car to the other. Do I need to take off the muffler to put it in or wiggle it thourgh the gap between the muffler and the transmission?
Also, what direction is the bend in the sway supposed to be facing, up or down?

taking off the muffler doesn't take long and will help a lot with the mounting.
if your car is lowered, run the bar "upside-down" with the bend going UP. that will prevent the droplink from hitting the underside of the trunk under compression ...

Thanks Everyone
