Now for the rear install. Much easier, as the bar can be removed from the car. Here's the "for dummies" version.

So we're starting with the bar inside your house. Remove two nuts on the endlinks, and remove the perches. Pull entire assembly. So you're left with this...

Remove the two nuts holding the bracket onto the perch.



Then remove the bracket from the bushing.



Now you're left with just the stock bushing.



Slide on the Deyeme bushing.

Now, simply put the bracket back over the new bushing.



Bolt it to the perch.



Here's the finished product.



Now do the other side. Then reinstall your sway bar. Crack a .

for the record, these can be installed without removing the whole perch/bar assembly..... so you can crack in the same amount of time as removing the perchaes and the bar and putting it all back together

Yes, Kris is correct. But I'd rather spend time in the house than laying in the driveway looking up.

Really? they are gonna recall the squeeky bushings? I always hear my bushing in the back and front squeeking. It is so annoying. Keep us posted because I want mine replaced under warranty if possible. (will save me time and money for new ones.)

Good for you. Please keep it out of my thread, since this is an install/review of a vendor's part.

No guarantees. But in my case, I think it was the cause. On your car, could be the nuts, could be the springs, could be the bushings. Worst case scenario, it couldn't hurt. And bushings are a part you want to replace from time to time (like plug wires) because they wear out from use.

what about on the bigger progress bar... those come with new bushings. Are they just as good or better?

Are these mods only for the stock bars?

Front bushings - only for stock bar
Rear bushings - there are only two sets in existence for the stock rear bar. The production bushings will be made for the Progress bar (because really, if you upgrade, you upgrade).

So when all is released, Deyeme will sell bushings for the stock front and Progress rear bars.

As far as I can tell, the bushings that come with the Progress bar aren't an upgrade. They're the same material as stock. (For those who don't know, I had the Progress bar, so I was able to compare the stock bushings, the Progress bushings, and now the new Deyeme stock bushings and Deyeme Progress bushings).
