Evolutione (anti)sway bar install

[dlycan2]

Finished the install yesterday. Before I put it all back together I have a question: Should the six (6) bolts and nuts that attach the bar to the front end be torqued?
There is no mention in the instructions. I realize these are aircraft nuts, but....

I didn't torque mine, just tightened them with gusto....

Didn't see any requirement to torque them either so I just tightened them down firmly with a little bit of loctite.

Was it difficult to install the sway bar? I wouldn't think so, but you never know!

Not a difficult install, just a lot of part removal! lol

Not at all, but had to use a large screwdrive to pry the back of the trunk away a little to get the u brackets and bolts in...

Went with RT shocks first...will likely get to sway bar soon...everyone loves it! Haven't heard a downside yet!!

All bolts deemed to be critical to stability, safety, should be torqued. If the manufacturer did not include torque specifications then you should use the settings suggested at the beginning of the service manual page XIV (14). This will ensure no bolt is over stressed or under tightened.

If you don't have a service manual pm me and I will send you a copy of the page. Ken krb1945
