SB035 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Cont.)
10. Now it is necessary to load the axle in order to properly position and connect the end link
mounting brackets. Lift up the rear end until the axle is approximately at ride height relative to
the body.
11. Position an end link in the middle hole of the sway bar on the inside of the bar and tighten the
nut using a 8mm wrench to hold the stud and a 19mm wrench to tighten the nuts.
12. Connect the correct frame bracket to the other end of the end link using IMAGE 4 as an
example.
13. Rotate the bar upwards until the end link bracket sits flush on the frame. The end link should be
as vertical as possible to insure that the sway bar works properly with no bind. NOTE: Some
exhaust systems may have an exhaust hanger mounted in this area. It will be necessary to modify
the hanger to provide proper clearance for the end link mounting bracket.
14. Once the sway bar bracket is in the proper position, either trace the bracket with a marker or
trace the bolt holes for drilling. Duplicate steps 11-13 for the other side.
15. Lower the sway bar and drill (4) 3/8” holes on your previous marks.
16. Mount the sway bar brackets to the frame using the supplied 3/8” x 1” Grade 8 bolts, nuts, and
flat washers. NOTE: Make sure when you mount the frame brackets that the horizontal bolt goes
in from the rear of the car pointing forward and the vertical bolt faces upward with the nut on
top. If the bolts are not inserted in these positions, the end link will not have sufficient clearance
on the mounting bracket. NOTE: Always put the flat washer on the slotted portion of the
bracket. The finished installation of the bracket should look like IMAGE 4.
17. Rotate the bar upward and connect the end links to the brackets. Tighten the end links using a
8mm wrench to hold the stud and a 19mm wrench to tighten the nuts. (IMAGE 5)
18. Pump approximately 5-8 pumps of grease into the grease fittings on the sway bar bushings then
lower the vehicle.
