Progress 22mm Rear Sway Bar PRE-ORDER SPECIAL - Toyota Yaris Forums

Neither is easy to install. I'd bet 400 bucks if you try to install your own springs you're taking one to the face. Pounds and pounds of pent up force... leave it to the real mechanics.

LOFL! You are such a woman! The rear sway bar is a 10 min job that involves loosening and tightening a few bolts.You will need to rent a spring compressor for the springs but its certainly not rocket science.

EDIT: I'll spare you the flaming Bill.

If you have no experience with a spring compressor, this is a hard install. That should cover, oh, most everybody.

Of course, Bill knows all. Sorry for insulting your mechanical skills. Oh wait, thats right, I didn't.

Even a caveman could install springs using my DIY.

The first time I ever installed springs on a car I had never worked with a spring compressor. Its pretty freeking self explanatory. If you can get the strut assembly off the car the spring compressor part is cake.

the rear suspension does not need a spring compressor to be dismantled...

the front yes but not the rear...

and the sway bar realy only takes 10 min to instal....
