How to remove and inspect the rear stabilizer bar and bushing on Lexus ES300?

Loosen the rear wheel lug nuts, raise the rear of the vehicle and place it securely on jackstands, then remove the rear wheels. Next, remove the heat insulator from the exhaust system. Detach the sway bar links from the bar by removing the nut and detaching the link from the sway bar on each side. If the ballstud turns with the nut, use a hex wrench to hold the stud. Unbolt the sway bar bushing retainers from the body by removing the bushing retainer bolts from both the left and right retainers. The sway bar can now be removed from the vehicle. Pull the retainers off the sway bar using a rocking motion. Check the bushings for wear, hardness, distortion, cracking and other signs of deterioration, replacing them if necessary. Check the sway bar links. Clean the areas of the bar where the bushings ride using a wire brush. If necessary, use a light coat of vegetable oil to ease bushing and Li-bracket installation, but avoid using petroleum-based products or brake fluid as these will damage the rubber. Installation is the reverse of removal.
