NEW SWAY BAR AS WELL AS THE FACTORY END-LINKS).
2. Lubricate the D-shaped poly bushings and install on the sway bar in approximately the same location as the
factory mounts. To ease installation of bushing, use coined end of sway bar to spread bushing at split and
slide bushing onto bar. Install using supplied U-plates and the factory supplied nuts. LEAVE LOOSE AT
THIS TIME . Attach the factory end link assemblies using factory supplied nuts. Torque all mounting
hardware and end links to factory specifications.
3. Remove the factory installed D-shaped bushings and U-plates from the FRONT SWAY BAR, (save the
hex nuts as you will reuse them later). Lubricate the new D-shaped poly bushing and install them on the
factory sway bar using supplied U-plates and factory hex nuts that were removed earlier. Torque nuts to the
factory specifications.
4. Recheck your installation on a regular basis thereafter.
