TRD Rear Sway Bar Install

[fad]

Hi,

I finally got around to installing the TRD rear sway bar I picked up from Castle Hill Toyota.

Ive taken the old one out and put in the TRD one. I was wondering as I didnt get instructions for it. What is the required torque on the nuts?

I tried searching for this, only came up with strut bar information.

I was looking through the corolla manual. It has (Stabilizer bar X Rear Axel Beam) I assume this is it. It has a specification of 149N.m

Anyone have any ideas?

just do it up as tight as you can

then check it later on as it might become loose

let me know how it feels with the TRD rear sway coz i got one just sittin here

gonna be putting soon

PS

have u done ne other suspension mods??

cheers

I found that the top nut turns, where as the bottom nut doesnt seem to move till the top one does.

Ill find out as soon as I drive it around a bit.

The torque value on those nuts is 149 Nm/110 lb-ft. I installed this myself as well and torqued the nuts to specification and I haven't had a problem.

It handles better as well although it can tend to oversteer sometimes but for me, that is not really a problem.
