3. Place the D-shaped poly bushings onto straight areas of the bar on each side of the center hump as shown in picture 3. Place

the U-plates over the D-bushings.

4. Hold the bar up to the axle and locate the position on the axles to mount to U-bolts. Install the U-bolt that best fits the axle

tube. Be sure to put the U-bolts under any brake lines, wires, or hoses on the axle to avoid possible damage. The threads of

the U-bolts will point rearward.

5. Place the saddle brackets over the legs of the U-bolts on the axles. Attach bar to axle by inserting legs of U-bolts through

holes in the U-plates and fasten with flat washers and nuts provided. LEAVE LOOSE AT THIS TIME FOR

ADJUSTMENT LATER.

6. Install end link hardware as shown in picture number 4 using the 7/16” X4 1/2” bolt and the bushing kit to connect the frame

bracket to the sway bar. Align end links so that they are perpendicular to the sway bar and tighten nut until the bushings

bulge slightly.

7. Align the sway bar side to side so that it is centered. The U-bolts and saddle brackets can be rotated on the axle up and down

so that the arms of the sway bar are parallel with the ground. Adjust hanger brackets so that the end links are aligned as

shown in picture 4. Torque the hanger bracket U-bolts to 35 ft-lb and the axle U-bolts to 45 ft-lb. Add a second nut to the

U-bolts and tighten against the first to lock both nuts in place.

8. Bounce the vehicle checking for clearance on all undercarriage components i.e.: exhaust, shocks, etc. Recheck installation

after 100 miles and periodically thereafter.
