KillJoy's Sway Bar Tip

[KillJoy]

If I can save ONE PERSON from the issue I am having, then I feel I have accomplished something.

Please, please, please...put a dab of grease between each and every item when you install your swaybars (nut, washer, bar...whatever). I did not. I creak and groan on elevation changes (bumps, dips). This started when I installed the Sways, and DID NOT grease them....

:up:

Any certain type of grease to use? I have my rear one sitting at work and waiting for my front one to swap so I can install both at the same time.

Is it tight enough or too tight? I did not use grease and have not had any squeaks or creeks. Did you use Addcos?

I just greased the plastic bushings and I'm A-OK.

I used wheel bearing grease.

+1 on the grease for the Addcos! My sway bar creaks like a bad ball joint...Forgot to greas'em. I almost wanna go back to rubber bushings

[KillJoy]

I used Marine Grease on my mount bushings, but not on the ones on the end links.

Who knows, they could be too tight, or too loose. I dunno. The ride heighth is evem, so I am happy about that..... except that creaking!

Perhaps I will correct this tomorrow......

I just greased the center bushings and have not had any issues. Use ONLY synthetic grease on the poly-type bushings. Regular grease will eventually destroy poly-type bushings.

I put zerks in mine before mounting and this will allow for greasing at a later date if needed...zerks are easy to install before mounting...willie

I had mine loosen up on me and that caused a squeak other then that its been quiet no matter how I drive it.
I did use grease on the center links though and nothing on the ends.
