Installation
 1. REMOVE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT (OE)
SWAYBAR LINKS
 Remove front swaybar drop links and mounting
hardware per the factory service manual instruc­tions for your vehicle.
 2. INSTALL UPPER TAPERED POST
 Mount the tapered Upper Stainless Steel Post (C)
on outboard side of the swaybar, ensuring small Click Pin holes are horizontal or parallel with the ground.
 Apply medium strength threadlocker to the tip of
1/2” x 1-3/8” Bolt (A).
 3. DETERMINE MOUNTING LOCATION FOR
WELD-ON TAB
It will be necessary to weld the lower mounting tab di­rectly to the front axle housing. The base of the tab can
be positioned in the 2-, 3-, or 4-o’clock conguration as
viewed from the passenger side (8-, 9-, or 10-o’clock from the driver side). HI NT: The position of the mounting tab will
depend on the vehicle and amount/type of suspension lift installed.
 Secure tapered post to swaybar by inserting the
1/2” x 1-3/8” Bolt (A) and 1/2” Lock Washer (I)
from the inboard side and tighten to 65 ft-lb. using a torque wrench.
HINT: A small Philips head screwdriver or punch inserted into the Click Pin hole will enable you to prevent the Stainless Steel Post from rotating when tightening the mounting bolt.
HINT: For easiest operation, the tapered mounting post should point forward as illustrated in the 2- or 4-o’clock
conguration. Alternatively, a perpendicular mounting posi­tion (as illustrated in the 3-o’clock conguration) may also
be utilized in tight clearance applications.
