Hmm strange just got under my car and it's seems to have no rear swaybar at all. Don't recall front having one either. Either I'm trippin' out or maybe the early Rev 1 models missed out...

Old thread revival. Does sway bar need to be removed to inslall reinforcement plates?

Hi Shaz, the sway bar mounts get removed and you let the sway bar "droop" whilst still being attached to the actual suspension. Very very easy installation.

Shaz, in case you didn't already know you will also need slightly longer ARB bracket mounting bolts than stock to account for the thickness of the plate.

Thanks.  No, I didn't know that, but now that you mention it, it makes sense.  Hopefully the guys doing it for me will have the right bolts in the workshop.

The mounting hardware comes with the plates.

Hey Trav, I was reminded about this when I was looking under my car while it was on this hoist at MRC today. Luckily my front swaybar mounts don't appear to have significant cracking yet, so I should order the reo plates to prevent it in the future.
If you have them in stock (?) I might order them now.

Just email via the website and we will get that organised for you.
