Default Please HELP! (Daizen sway install!)

I'm installing the rear sway bar...everything was going smooth until I slid the Daizen in and tried squeezing it between the endlinks. Fought with it for quite awhile, then pulled it out and saw its about 2" wider than the stock bar. What the phuk? How it the world, unless it's not the right bar? I bought it off the classifieds not long ago...

Son also knocked ALL the sockets of of their case, so I'm too pissed to do a search. Can anyone help me please?

Thanks,

Did you already put the front one on? Mine were the same width... just thicker Two inches wider don't seem right!

You have to flip the endlinks around.

That kind of makes sense...so instead of the endlink bolts facing in they would face out? I bet that would be it. (I just bought the bars used w/o instructions. I thought I was smart enough to get through a sway bar install without em, dammit. )

its in the instructions. flip the endlinks.

so instead of them being attached from the outside of the sway, u have them attached from the inside.

make sure u grease the new bushings.
