Sway bar question
To install a rear sway bar, do I have to have the weight on or off the rear wheels?

On. Best way is to use ramps.

Does that help? I will be doing my own rear sway soon, and the only thing that I'm not very clear on is if all the attachment bolts need to be locktited....anybody?

Did my upgrade to a WRX wagon rear bar this afternoon. Left it on the ground, no ramps. A very easy install, just took my time and it came out to about an hour from getting the toolbox out to putting it back. Didn't use loctite, but am wondering how often I should check the bolts....
Results? Seems to make the quick turns a bit more controllable. The stock one was tiny compared to that WRX bar!
