How do you remove and replace the rear stabilizer bar and bushings on Lexus RX330?

Lose the rear wheel lug nuts, then chock the rear wheels, lift the rear of the car and snug it on jack stands before removing the rear wheels. Next, remove the heat insulator from the exhaust system and the lower nut of the sway bar links from the bar; if the ballstud rotates with the nut, tighten an Allen wrench to the stud. For 2014 and later models, when replacing the sway link, remove the link bracket to control arm bracket nut, then unbolt the bracket and link as a single unit, then remove the link nut to sever it from the bracket. Remove the sway bar bushing retainers and if necessary the two retainer brackets from the body. Due to improved access, the sway bar can now be removed while the bushings must be unbolted with their positions marked. Check if the bushings are worn, hard, twisted, cracked, or otherwise damaged and replace them if they are; The split of the bushing should face up, when they are installed. Scrub the surface parts of the bar that the bushing roll on with a wire brush and for the new bushing apply vegetable oil to both the inner and outer sides of the new bushing and do not use brake fluids or any petroleum or mineral based lubricants. Last of all, installation is done in a backward manner to the process of removal.

Lexus RX330 Sway Bar Kit

The Lexus RX330 Sway Bar Kit keeps the SUV flat when turning and connects the left and right suspension together and stops the SUV from rolling by using a torsion bar. Within the Sway Bar Kit assembly, the steel bar is twisted when opposite wheels move, transferring the force across the axle, so both sides go up or go down together, making handling tight but not affecting ride softness. Earlier RX330 models use a fixed Sway Bar Kit which has constant stiffness, simple construction and predictable road feel. Later Lexus editions adopt adjustable or even active Sway Bar Kit setups on modern RX330 versions; these have links and sensors that vary the resistance to suit the speed and surface to allow sharper turn in but smoother travel over bumps. Regular checks of the Lexus hardware keep operation smooth and maintain RX330 poise, but no additional tuning is required for many owners. For performance fans, a Lexus sport package can further stiffen the Sway Bar Kit without hefty weight gain.

Should you need to purchase new auto parts for your vehicle, we strongly suggest you consider the genuine Lexus RX330 Sway Bar Kit available on LexusPartsNow.com. Our OEM Lexus RX330 Sway Bar Kit come with the reassurance of the manufacturer's warranty, a hassle-free return policy, and speedy delivery service, all at affordable prices online.
