sway bar? keep it or ditch it
i broke 2 of the 4 bolts that hold the sway bar to the frame. one on each side broke off infront of the sway bar. the head just snapped right off and left the threads in the frame. doesnt look like i can get them out. do i really need the sway bar? if so how the heck am i going to get there bolts out.?! 95 4runner wiht the 3.0v6

get a puller from your local store... all you need to do is drill a small pilot hole in the center of the bolt, screw in the puller and back it out. but you dont really need the "anti-sway bar" all it does is prevent excess body roll in hard cornering. i know alot of guys here dont use them and have no problems so its just up to you

well i got a pair of downey torsion bars on the way with some hd coils so i am going to try and ditch the bar. i just didnt know if it helped hold in an alignment or anything thanks for all your tips. i broke the 2 bolts taking it off by the way same bolt just on different sides
