Front Suspension

REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Raise the vehicle. Support the vehicle with safety stands.

Important: Remove the parts from the right front and the left front of the vehicle. Keep the parts separated.

2. Remove the nut from the link bolt from the lower control arm.
3. Remove the insulator.
4. Remove the link bolt.
4.1. Remove the spacer.
4.2. Remove the insulator.
5. Remove the bracket bolts.
6. Remove the bracket.
7. Remove the stabilizer shaft.
8. Remove the stabilizer shaft rubber bushings.
9. Inspect all of the parts for wear or damage.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Unload the torsion bar.
2. Install the insulators to the stabilizer shaft. Face the slit in the insulator forward.
3. Install the stabilizer shaft to the frame and to the lower control arm.
4. Install the clamp to the rubber bushings.

NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the proper location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems.

5. Install the bolts to the weld nuts.
^ Tighten the bolts to 15 Nm (11 ft. lbs.).
