Sway bar install on 2013 SS
For those of you that installed the sway bars in your garage...
Did you have a difficult time getting the front one out using jack stands? Did you have to raise the motor? Thank you for your feedback

Just a bit of a pita. Didn't raise motor but I did take off ps unit bolts. It's trickery but can be done. We actually slid it towards passenger side first than dropped the drivers side down between frame and out drivers side.

I raised the motor for the front bar. Only loosened a couple of bolts, didn't fully remove them, and raised everything an inch or so.
Removing the exhaust (just the axle-back) makes the rear bar 100x easier as well regardless of year.

I didn't remove or unbolt anything, although that could make it easier. The front one is a pain to get out and a thicker one tough to get in but it can be done. I used jack stands and left the bushings/clamps in place.

I did it in my driveway on jack stands 2 yrs.ago. A teenager helped. It takes some finagling, be patient. Remove from right side.
