Bruce Nunnally Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 and thank you for posting! I would rate installation of sway bar bushings as fairly simple. That also makes it inexpensive to have done. The sway bar bushings are heavy rubber held by brackets. Check this thread for info. He had to change his brackets and the endlinks, but you can see the bushings here: Bruce 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Follow me on: Twitter Instagram Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodybyFisher Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Pay attention to the slit, I can't recall whether it faces forward or toward the rear but it matter. The FSM covers it, if you need to know, but when you remove the old ones pay attention Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BodybyFisher Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Each bushing bracket has one bolt and a tongue that goes into the frame. It is easier to do this job with the car on the ground, jacking it up especially jacking up one side, will put tension on the bushings Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
