SAFETY: BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION BE SURE TO SET THE PARKING BRAKE AND

CHOCK THE WHEELS.
NOTE: TO EASE INSTALLATION AND PROPERLY ADJUST THE BAR, THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHI-

CLE MUST BE ON THE SUSPENSION AS IF DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. DO NOT RAISE THE VEHI-

CLE BY THE FRAME.
NOTE: THIS KIT REQUIRES DRILLING THE FRAME RAIL AND POSSIBLE RELOCATION OF FUEL

AND BRAKE LINES. INSTALLER MUST ENSURE THAT THE SWAY BAR KIT WILL NOT INTER-

FERE WITH ANY FUEL OR BRAKE LINES OR HOSES.

IMPORTANT NOTE: SWAY BAR END LINKS MUST BE ATTACHED ON OUTER

HOLE PRIOR TO INITIAL USE. SEE PHOTO 12.

1. Lubricate the D shaped bushings and place them onto the straight areas of the bar on each side of the

center hump as close to the outside bend as possible.

2. 1970 models only. Remove the breather vent bolt from axle. Place spacer washer under brake line tee

and re attach vent bolt as shown in PHOTO 2. This will provide adequate room for the axle u-bolts to
be placed under the brake lines.

3. Hold bar up to the axle and locate the position on the axle tubes to mount the u-bolts. Be sure to put the

U-Bolts Under Any Brake Lines, Wires or Hoses on the Axle to Avoid Any Possible Damage. The
threads of the U-Bolts will point down. See PHOTO 3.
