Sway Bar Link DIY replacement

. This has some good information.

 

Yes that is about correct on the conversion. No I have never done it myself. Just suspension and brake work. Cv axles.

 

One of the easiest chores there is on a Prius. Remove the wheel. Remove the top and bottom nut. Toss the old strut. Put the new one in place and resecure the nuts. Replace the wheel.

On rare occasions, the stud might spin rather than the nut coming off. If that happens, there's an allen head on the back side so you can hold it with an allen wrench.

 

I've done it dozens of times. If you already have the car in the air and have an impact driver, it takes about 15 minutes. Most of that time is taking off the wheels and replacing them. Longer if you just have a ratchet.

That torque value seems OK, if you're inexperienced and don't know the right feel for a nut and bolt that size.

 

I think replacing new bushings while you have it off would be a great idea. Sometimes this is the source of a clunking sound while driving over little small bumps.
