sway bar on 02 rmk

[eyeles rmk]

What is the easiest way to remove the sway bar on an 02 800 rmk? I want to take out the whole thing not just cut it. Any info would be great.

It's been a while since I did mine, but take one of the trailing arms off, drill out the rivits on both sides, and the whole thing should slide out the side without the trailing arm. Hope this helps

That is how I did mine, then I went to the hardware store and got a couple of rubber plugs and put in the holes. Just cut it out, you will never put it back in.

Drill rivets on one side. push, pull , twist and out she comes. Don't have to take trailing arm off. Throw it away and don't look back.

ya i agree with not having to pull off the trailing arm, if you cant do it within 5 minutes you are doing it wrong, just put your toe of your shoe on the the sway bar and it'll push in in and out of the trailing arm easy enough, then you can drill out the rivits, but i prefur a cold chisle and hammer, way faster. rotate the sway bar out, play with it and it will come outta there, just got to find the sweet spot. and dont forget to slide the plastic peices out of the trailing arms or thay fall out later and you'll wonder for about 6 minutes what the hell are these for!..and no you wont want to put it back , but you have the parts to do it if you decide to. by the time you read this you could have had it done already.
