Very good video, thanks! I just did this to my 2000 Buick Regal LS and it was pretty easy. All of the manuals I have read suggest dropping the sub-frame. However with some patience and wiggling the sway bar around, I did not have to. I came right out through the drivers side wheel well. Thanks again
Thank you very much. I replaced a broken sway bar link myself thanks to your video. $4.25 was all the part cost. You saved me a lot of labor cost and I tip my hat to you.
For you Grand Prix GTP, Impala SS, and Regal GS people and others, even though it is a minivan and I don't care how it handles, I did notice body roll was minimized with the solid bar installed. The solid bar is heavier though. So it is a tradeoff if you are looking at performance.
I like your videos alot, I'm about to do this to my 2004 grand prix as I'm going to coilovers. Because my car is dropped I do have engine spacers lifting my engine about 1/2", do you think that will make it easier to slide the new sway bar in? I also have headers.
@scruffy412 It was not hard on this vehicle and I looked at an impala and it actually looked there was more space. With your mods though I don't know how it will effect installation. One note, on the impala I looked at the bar was installed "upside down" from how this one is installed so just pay attention to how your bar is mounted. Specifically whether the middle bend is up or down.
do you have to replace sway bar if you just need to replace link bushings? do you have to take out sway bar link bracket if just getting to the link bushings?
Great Video a big help for my dads 98 buick century

what would happen if I would just unhook the swaybar and leave it?

@mrexecutive1 Visual inspection. On many cars you get a rattling or clunking noise over bumps when the stabilizer bar breaks totally.
