I AM INSTALLING A REAR FACTORY SWAY BAR TO MY CAR . DOES ANYONE KNOW IF YOU CAN JUST DRILL THROUGH AND BOLT IN ON OR DO YOU HAVE TO DRILL AND COUNTER SINK AND WELD NUTS IN THE FRAME?

There are four hex screws per mount. I will try and find mine and get a photo for you if no ones chimes in first.

The factory just used the equivalent of Tek screws (self drilling metal screws). They were quite beefy and four per mount onto the subframe (into the sides). I reused these when reinstalling mine, however it was impossible to find a new poly or rubber bushing to fit into the factory U mount so i got some new U mounts and the matching bushings and then had to weld on 2 large bolts made into studs to bolt them on. The factory ones were just spot welded on! Luckily there was enough room between the subframe for the cut down bolt heads.

let me know if you want me to take some photos
