Karcepts KFSB-AP-XX - Manual (Page 4)

1. Solid Mount/Center Section Installation
A.
Raise the front of the vehicle and support it with jack stands.
B.
Remove the front wheels, splash shield, sway bar, sway bar bushing holders,
and endlinks.
C.
The factory sway bar mounting brackets (OEM steel brackets that mount under
the frame rails) must be utilized in conjunction with the Karcepts Solid Sway Bar
Mounts. Never use any other aftermarket sway bar mounts with this kit as they
will alter the geometry. If the factory brackets are currently installed on the
vehicle, now is a good time to double check their tightness to the frame. The
factory torque spec on these M12 (17mm socket) bolts is 61 ft-lbs.
D.
Slide a solid mount onto each end of the splined center section. Upon first
install, it can be normal if the mount bushings require some effort to slide onto
the shaft. Note the orientation of the bushing inside each mount. The flanged
side of the bushings must be positioned facing out.
DO NOT oil the bushings with any form of lubricant. The polymer bushings are
infused with solid lubricants and must break-in and run dry.
