as some of you guys know whiteline has some pretty weak installation guides that come with their gear. ive figured out most of it, just abit stuck at the endlinks and the washers. where should they go? between the bushes or bolts or?

heres a pic-adee.

If you need a quick answer call up Whiteline (see their website for the phone number).

I have only called them a couple of times re technical questions (eg how often to grease the bushes on a sway bar) and they are very happy to help.

just need one washer for each bushing thing...

so 4 altogether

because the lca and the swaybar itself should hold the bushing in place on one side

as long as a single washer is on every metal/rubber surface - thats all u need

haha scavengers!

note: never ever begin anything @ 7pm, no matter how much light is left, because it gets **** dark asap. damn thing took me 3+ hours to install, most of it was spent wondering why my subframe aint as straight as it should be. got it in the end, havent taken it for a 'spirited' test yet though. ;)

I had the same problem... a couple of e-mails and some pics later had it sorted out though. I had to adjust a few things though :confused: Here's what they sent me... it might not be the same mounting points etc but atleast you can see how they put the nuts and bolts. The inner most washers take a beating tho :(

the bush is on the wrong side of the swaybar. Swap over with the bushing next to the shock (instead of next to subframe) and thats it.

true ~ just goign on what you showed us - its not such an extreme angle ( such as the EK swaybar one lol) so it wont be a problem in any way methinks.
Leave it then :cool:

mine was missing 2 bolts for the end links maybe yours is also?
That could be why you can't find all the pieces?

Try dummying up the whole setup off your car first. it takes longer but it helps if you've nver done it before.

ALso those arm bolts (the really long ones) are a pain i the a$$ to get in. I tapered the ends and banged them slightly to get them in. This took me like 2 hrs before i though about tapering them. Then it only took me 5 mins to get each one in. The original bolts are tapered for this reason.

P.S don't tighten the bushes that hold the bar to the body too much or they will wrap and they apparently make noise when you do them too tight.
