Installing New Hotchkis Anti-Roll Bar
7F. Here’s the fun part. The Hotchkis bar has a larger tube diameter, so installing it may

At this point the sway bar will need a little force to get into position. Take your trusty dead
blow hammer and hit the anti-roll bar end as shown in the pictu re below. It won’t take too
much to pop it into place.
Once the anti-roll bar end is above the lower control arm, you can easily slide it into position.
