Hi all, I'll be installing new front sway bar links and d bushes for the front. I have a rough idea how to do the links, but no idea how to install the bushes. I have tried to google it but not much comes up, has any one got a how to? Or instructions please.

Thanks

Easiest way to do the D bushes is lift the hood - undo the bolts that hold the D brackets down - then replace the bushes - place D plates back on - reinstall bolts.

The right hand side bottom bolt can be a little tricky but no real problem with a decent socket set.

Main thing is - don't raise the vehicle as that puts load on the sway bar. Its about a 20 minute job both sides - maybe an hour if this is your first time.
