It is up to MiniNurse, but we could do it at our place before we move. We have a small garage and a small townhouse, 13ft wide, and can have a small party. We got the Alta, actually, don't they recommend for Cooper people to just get an S sway bar?
Check around folks for what you want to install. As from what I have read a front bar isn't needed.
I can lend a floor jack and a set of hands. Mark W did my bar and I watched as he worked. I'd love to learn more and change the setting on my bar.

... and as always...
I don't have the know how for that job, but I do have a wide garage, floor jack, stands, and compressor with impact wrenchs etc. that any and all are welcome to use. SO if you get the brains but need a site...
I feel the makings of a party!
Who needs to install anyting to get us all together! (I really want the sway bar installed though) Anyone brave enough to check fuses to see why the heck my airconditioner doesn't put air out of the front vents? I want to try to avoid going to MoS or LDG...and paying...

With a buddy, we made the rear sway bar install in just under two hours. Actually very simple. I'm willing to lend assistance/advice. Just make sure u have a floor jack & jack stands. Impact tools good, but not required.
Front sway bar not worth the time/effort & $ for the performance gain. Rear you will notice immediate response.

I finished my thing up after sun went down.
Forget that 1.5 hr or whatever the installation time .. it's just stupid.

Now I have a clue, a book (haynes), and a club of goon strength! We can do it in less than two!
