How dee,
has anyone fitted the rear sway bar with out taking the transmission out? I am not keen on doing it the hard way if I can avoid it.
Cheers ::)
i never even knew you needed to take the trans out.
whats the reason for taking the sway bar out?
hi all,
I have a 30mm swaybar. I would like to fit ,I have replaced the trans hanger bush and to do that I had to disconnect the hand brake
and drop the back of the trans ,putting it back the bolt is ok but rejusting the handbrake was tricky.
So is there a way i can side it out by taking a shock of or the sping this any one do this to get it out??
Cheers :)
shane did you endup sending that book ? i am free to morrow afternoon and i was going to see if i could pick it up
I think i put one in once without taking the transaxle out. It was a real pain though. Will be even trickier with a bigger bar.
Hi Alphie,
I have changed the sway bar on the back of Alfetta GT and GTV without removing the Trans but I probably did it on the hoist which gives you a lot more manouverability to get the bar out and in.
As far as the handbrake goes I am sorry if I am telling you to suck eggs but you did adjust the pistons to give 4/6 thou clearance between pad and disc before tensioning the cable didn't you?.
Cheers

hi all,
I have pull out my tool box ,19mm sidchrome in hand here I go 8)
cheers
not going well my probem is the the h/brake line the 10mm nut is free and i have losned the 13mm nut
but the line is not bugging ??? maybe i can realess the other slide .
I'll tri that.
::)
well that worked on the h/brake line. ::)
the trans won't budge ???help
You have taken the 19mm bolt out i assume? Also, is there enough length in the flexible brake line without undoing it? I don't know the answer, just something to consider. Next i would be supporting the transaxle on the jack, and lowering it to a workable height. If you're not getting to this stage pretty easily you have probably done/haven't done something very wrong.
Oh yeah, and keep in mind the whilst you are lowering the rear of the transaxle you will be twisting and stretching the front mounts. So don't lower it more than you need to.
HI ALL,
I think it mite be the mounting point is crimped on to the bush and yes i have a jack in place .
i have removed the spring and the shock on the L/side i have got the s/bar over the exhaust system
but it is stuck on the bush mount and the body for the car .
