im swapping out my sway bar and need the torque specs for the brackets and links, please and thank you.

 

side note: i have heard f body breaks will swap into a w body. larger rotors and duel piston calipers. has anyone done this before?

doesnt matter if its a v6 or v8 f-body. dont get j/y crap. brakes are not where you want to skimp on money. i would just go get reman calipers w/brackets, rotors, and pads from where ever you buy parts from.

 

there are a couple little things like a spacer or bolts or something you have to get as well. search on clubgp, they have alot more info on this.

any tips on removing the old bushings and links... the rubber, plastic and rust seemed to have fused. ive been beating on it with a hammer but its made to be a shock absorber...

one last question. should i have to detach the tie rod ends to get the new sway bar back on? i pulled the old one out and fished the new one in but when i was done i found both ends were above my tie rods and i cant seem to get them around. only thing i can think of is removing the nut and moving the tie rods which is something i have never done before.

yup... pretty sure i just broke a tie rod end... its just free spinning up around the bushing. o well il pick up a set of shocks and do them before i get an alignment...
