Leave loose at this time to allow adjustment later. SEE PHOTO (4).
5. Raise the sway bar arms up to the mounted frame brackets. Complete the end links assy, washer ,
bushing , sway bar, bushing, flat washer and lock nut. SEE PHOTO (2). Tighten just slightly that the bushings start to bulge or damage can occur to the poly-bushings.
