??? on replacing the front sway bar

Short and simple, can the front sway bar be removed and replaced without lifting the car (2004) or dropping any components out of it?

It LOOKS to me like the job can be done if you just support the car and remove the front wheels, but I'm not sure about this and I don't want to
get halfway into tearing things apart only to discover that I can't complete the task in my garage.


Getting access to the brackets is absolutely easy. Same goes for the links. What I'm not sure about is whether or not the bar can be maneuvered
through the channel without unbolting anything else.

I did the job last night. It went smoothly with no surprises.

Now, both front and rear sway bars are upgraded to V versions, with new links as well.


Handling in corners is definitely crisper, body roll is virtually nonexistent, and ride quality has not suffered at all.



It was worth doing.
