Front sway bar bushings on 72 Demon
Did the research from other members and instructions from Energy Supension. It literally took me 15 minutes to do both sides.
First put the brackets on the way they came off the bar. Lube up the end eyelet and inside of bushing. Push the bushing over eyelet and on bar.
Then lube up the inside of bracket and outside of bushing. Keep both the bracket and bushing near the eyelet because the bar seems thinner there. With your channel-locks pinch one side of the bushing into the bracket, you can then hold that side with your fingers to keep it from sliding out. Next pinch the other side in. At that point the top of the bushing is the only part sticking out. Now pinch the top in as well. Done, just slide it in place. Silicone grease is your friend.
It took longer to write this than the job itself. Expected a nightmare.
