    Rear swaybar links tighten unloaded?

    Does the rear suspension need to be loaded to install the rear sway bar links? And what about the fronts?

    When I did the rears I put the car on ramps and hooked it up, I went with the 034 rear sway bar

    It shouldn't matter if the suspension is loaded or unloaded for the links. I've also always done it on ramps so its under load and I've never had any real issues.
