1. search. odds are, if you can think of it, someone else already has, too.
2. i know it's hard, but 15 minutes without a post does not mean you need to bump it.
3. http://www.comptechusa.com/sto...8.pdf there are instructions on comptech's site.

well those "D" brackets go in the holes on the shinny piece you have.

The end links go in the lower control arm holes...Use bolts to tighten them. Its really straight forward, pretty difficult to mess up, honestly.

maybe he had that stuff installed, and now he's trying to install his own parts....I don't think he should be flamed for that.

to him for wanting to install his own swaybar

Good stuff, and you didn't even get it upside down like alot of people do when they install rear swaybars.

Nice looking suspension stuffs ya got there.

And I think that sway/tie combo is a direct bolt-on affair.

I have heard good things about the suspension techniques since it upgrades both sway bars. I am running the comptech set-up myself.

I couldn't be happier with my Comptech rear sway.

However, the instructions linked to on comptech's site are not up to date. They changed how the endlinks attach, using additional spacer-type washers on both sides of both ends of the endlink, and a U shaped bracket on the non-itr (maybe itr as well) lca.

To the original poster, DEESEE_JERMZ, make sure you retorque down the bolts after driving it a little while (a week or so). Last thing you want are loose suspension bolts.
