I got the bushes in and tightened down the clamps. The bushes were well greased before installation but I am wondering if the sway bar can be too tight. I can raise and lower it by hand with a lot of force. I imagine it will loosen up with a little wear. Anybody have advice on this before I bolt in the new drop links?
Many thanks
Steve

 

Seldom use a torque wrench myself, unless i am inside of a motor.
The size of fastener determines the amount of torque in most cases.

Better answer than mine, much more accurate.

 

Thanks guys. I couldn't get my torque wrench in there but I reckon my mechanics hand memory has it about right. It loosened up some after a few pressups. Got my new drop links in, wheel well liners in and am about to paint the lower front crossmember after wire brushing. Everything looking good for a test drive tonight
