For swapping the front sway arm bushings, do you crawl under or do it from the side with a wheel off? I know you take the wheel off for the rear.
I noticed in my parking garage at work that my suspension is making a styrofoam sound, and at 86k miles it's probably past due for the sway bar bushings to get changed.
So the passenger side was easy.
As I've read online, though, the top part of the driver side is fricken impossible. The front diff is right there in the way. I don't see any way to get at it without removing one of the front diff braces.
@avslash, you say you got it with just a wratcheting box end wrench? I've tried one of those, I've tried a regular box end wrench, and I've tried an offset box end wrench. I've tried getting at it from the left, right, top, and bottom. You can access it all those ways, but you can't turn the wrench at all. I've never had a nut you can see from outside the damn car give me this much trouble.
