4x4's don't need jackstands.
Should be a cinch to get it done on that bad boy.

im currently waiting on my buddy to get done chillin with his girl to use his jack and jackstand. that pic is from my house, i backed up the driveway and stopped right before my garage so it still had that angle so i could slide under on my belly and blast the bolt with the wd40.

okay, so i tried to do the install today but i was limited on time. i tried un doing the nut where the sway bar meets the end link and it just kept spinning. ive seen others where you need to put an allen key in so it doesnt spin. i didnt have enough time to take off the tire to look. am i supposto be able to just take the nut off normally or do i have to do anything else?
the whole bolt spun when i was trying to loosen it

You need to use the allen key on the bolt to hold it from spinning.

okay thats what i figured. i didnt have enough time to jack up the car and take the wheel off to check it. so the allen key comes from the outside in the actual endlink, not the threaded side right.

i was trying to find a jack point for the rear and honestly couldnt find a good spot. i did some searches on google and they said the tow hook? is that right?

Your car has a jackspot right in front of the rear wheel on the frame. It actually has four of them. Chuck the front wheels and jack both rears in the air. Use JACK STANDS! just for safety sake even if your car isnt lowered and you can fit under it when its resting. If it was to come down on you it'd actually bounce lower and possibly crush your ribs/lungs. Not worth it for a swaybar.
The allen key goes from the inside, where the nut is. You will find that the bolt/stud has a grove on it for the allen key.

tow hook should be fine in the rear... if you have the owners manual it should say that's where you can do it.
i know in the TSX manual it says that the rear tow hook was meant to be used as a jack point.

It'd be somewhat hard to slide in from the rear if you have your jack/jackstand positioned there however.
