Thanks for your video, I could prepare to change mine as well. It is recommended to prepare with disc grinder, in case you have so rusty and fixed screws I had. I had to cut down the top of the screws to be able to remove the old stabilizers.
Just a heads up guys, a 2007 USA Focus is NOT the same as a 2007 UK mk2 focus. USA didnt update to mk2 suspension for a couple more years. MK2s have different end links
Hi would you know if rear sway bars are torsion bars my car failed test on coil spring/torsion bar cut/broken but I can't see anything obvious,,any advice be much appreciated
I bought Volvo dealer OEM.. they were of plastic and not rubber as i have seen in other videos. Really expensive. 110 euro for two! Looks really easy to replace. Mine is missing the bottom part on the left side. Looks like bolt head vanished :) so swaybar is inactive/disabled for now with lots of banging and clonking :) No need to jack up the car or the tires? Swaybar not loaded?
you can raise the control arm a bit more if need space. and there will be enough space to put the top bushing to tighten down. I didn't need to hold the top nut to tighten it.

Thanks for the video A ratchet and socket on bottom would be easier
those old ones look like new to what I got to take off I need to hack saw mine off somehow.
In The Uk Manual They Say To Torque Up To 11 Pounds
I got 2007 focus mine don’t look like that
Do you have to use axle stands?
If you're getting under a car axle stands should ALWAYS be used 👍🏻
For sure better safe then dead
How did you know it had to be replaced?
You would normally hear a clunking noise every time you go over a pothole
@@tariqtaj9133 And sometimes you'll even see that the bottom part has snapped off.
Silicon grease on bolt as it's between bushings; keep it from squeaking.
Copper grease is better
I wouldn't have needed the elevator you used if you hadn't tightened the link on the other side.😅
On the 2008 model focus,they don't have them. Just FYI
Weird that my focus is a 2005 and it’s a newer shape then this one
Yeah mine is 2006 and a mk2, I guess this one must have been a late registered mk1 sat in a showroom for a while?⚠️👍
USA pal, Europe, UK and Australia got the mk1 up until late 2005, your 2005 must be a eraly mk2
Why don't you go buy a 16mm?
When they break or when you hear nose from the rear end
