[s-cars] Apikol rear sway bar - installation question

[Tom Rodriguez]

I have purchased an Apikol rear sway bar kit for my '95 S6.  My car does not
have a factory-equipped rear sway bar.  The Apikol instructions require that
I drill and tap a hole into each of the rear shock mount castings and use
these new holes to secure the new sway bar brackets.  I'm looking for advice
from anyone who has done this.  Is this a simple task or a PITA? Did you use
a hand-held drill, and if so did you follow any special procedure to ensure
the new hole is perpendicular to the face of the casting?  An alternative
would be to remove the rear shock mount castings and drill the holes on a
drill press, but this is a much more involved process that is not suggested
in Apioko's instructions.

 

Thanks,

Tom Rodriguez
