I’m sure there’s a thread on this somewhere but I haven’t been able to find it. How do I get the factory sway bar out of my 75? I have the three bolts out on each side, how do I get the seal and mounting plate past the end of the sway bar? Puller?

Also, I snapped off one of the mounting bolts, any suggestions? Easy Out?

Thanks

heat the rubber bushing with a torch and pull the plate off the bar.
Try a reverse drill bit on the broken bolt.

You have to push the bushing loose from the triangular bracket. I pull the sway bar toward you. Place spaces under the corners of the bracket. Use a punch and hammer to loosen the bushing at the split. Remove the bracket and pull the bar out from the other side.
Heat will help.
