Anybody have any tips or suggestions on how to change these? Not much room to remove the bolts on these things! Thanks!

There isn't a lot of room to get at the sway bar on any of the transverse 6-cyl's. To just do bushings on the front bar, we usually drop the back half of the subframe and tilt it down. To replace the bar itself, the whole subframe needs to drop.

Awesome thanks. What size are the bushing bracket bolts?

Been awhile since I did them on an R52. I'm pretty sure they're 8-1.0, but I can't recall if the heads are 12 or 13mm.
