Front Stabilizer Bar Replacement

NOTE: Bolts and nuts with the [star] mark are special corrosion-resistant Dacro fasteners. Use the same type if replacement is necessary.

2. Remove the splash guard (A).





3. Remove the self-locking nuts (A) while holding the joint pin (B) with a hex wrench (C), and disconnect the stabilizer links (D) from the stabilizer bar (E) on the right and left side.





4. Remove the bolts (A) and bushing holders (B), then remove the bushings (C) and the stabilizer bar (D).





5. Install the stabilizer bar in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
- Note the right and left ends of the stabilizer bar.
- Align the ends of the paint marks (A) on the stabilizer bar with each end of the bushings (B).
- Connect the stabilizer bar to the links properly.
