How do i install front sway on 03 MCS ?

Hey guys,
My question is how can i install the front sway bar without having to completely remove the subframe? If i cant do so, does anyone have a link to a good walkthrough on removing the Sub frame. Im hoping there is a way to somehow just lower the rear of the sub to squeeze out the old sway and install the new one. Oh and if your wondering, i got the hotchkiss setup of ebay. Thanks for the help guys!

https://www.northamericanmotoring.com...23#post1420223 This is the link I used when I did my LCA bushings. K-Huevo did a greatjob on the post. I did the sub frame drop by myself and it really is the way to go. While you are at it, you want/need to replace the LCA bushings anyhow depending on your mileage. Good luck! Also, Way Motor Works has the Powerflex bushings already installed in the mounts for a very good price, making the whole job a little easier.
