4. Apply lithium grease to the poly bushing then slide it over the sway bar.
5. Secure the sway bar to the frame
with two 5/16” x 1” Socket Head Cap
Screws, flat washers and Nylok nuts. Note: Due to the larger diameter
bar, the front hole must be drilled with a 5/16 bit, in front of the factory hole. Use the bracket as a template.
6. On some cars clearance of the cross member may be needed for sway bar clearance. .
9. Attach the other end of the PosiLink to the sway bar arm with a
3/8” flat washer and a 10mm Nylok
nut.

three 3/8” x 1” Flat Head Cap
Screws. Blue or Green Loc-tite must be applied to the threads of these bolts.
8. The straight end of the PosiLink will attach to the lower control arm.
A “T”-Bushing must be installed on each side of the control arm.
Secure the assembly with a 10mm Nylok nut.
Note: To avoid the front steering arm bolt hitting the PosiLink, a thin Nylok jam nut is installed and the excess threads must be cut off.
