Pontiac Vibe Sway Bar Kit
The Sway Bar Kit in Pontiac Vibe vehicles is a very vital component in improving the vehicle's handling by reducing the roll of the body during cornering over patches of the ground that are irregular. This anti roll bar links opposite wheels with a torsion spring this increases roll stiffness while roll diameter does not change the vertical spring rate. Thus, the Pontiac Vibe Sway Bar Kit resists torsion, and the heights of the wheels are similar, thus making less sideslip and therefore more grip. The primary role of Sway Bar Kit is to provide added stability and but it can transfer the shock between wheels thus creating an effect that is referred to as waddling on the uneven surfaces. There is an adjustable and active Sway Bar Kit type that has been fitting to different Pontiac Vibe models so that it can have different stiffness to enhance its performance. All these improvements make the Pontiac Vibe well rounded for all sorts of road conditions to increase the performance and the smoothness of the ride it provides.
Each OEM Pontiac Vibe Sway Bar Kit we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Pontiac Vibe Sway Bar Kit Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install the front stabilizer bar and bushing on Pontiac Vibe?A: This procedure is still difficult for beginning mechanics as it calls for lifting the engine/transaxle assembly with a fixture or hoist, and unbolting and lowering the front suspension cross-member. Start by removing the front wheel lug nuts and by lifting the car and placing it on standing jacks in a secure manner. Stop/start the vehicle and when stopped, place the parking brake and turn the rear wheels to the left. Loosen both front wheels and free the metal loop of the sway bar from the bar or strut depending on the design. Remove the pinch bolt and nut from the lower end of the steering shaft and then from above suspend the vehicle so that the engine/transaxle assembly is off the ground. Then, undo the bolts to the engine transaxle cross member and then the sub frame crossmember to the chassis and lower the cross member with floor jack to access the Sway Bar Clamps. Loosen the sway bar bushing clamps and take out the sway bar checking the retainer bushings for signs of wear and renewing them in that case. Correctly remove the bushing of the sway bar kit and clean the area usually with a wire brush before installing the new bushing, which should be lubricated with vegetable oil in order to facilitate the reassembly of the other parts and equipment. Installation is done in the reverse of removal and all the fasteners are tightened appropriately. Standards recommend using a rod, with the diameter equivalent to the bolts when re-installing the subframe. Lastly, you fit a wheel and nuts and drop the car, then, finally, tighten the lug nuts and check the front wheel alignment is correct if it is not.
