6. Apply Loctite to the provided 10mm sway bar mounting
bolts (x4) and install using a 17mm socket or end wrench. Do
not tighten the bolts all the way; there will be some adjusting
of the bar’s final position. The stabilizer bar is properly aligned
when sector shaft nut is centered in the hole. If necessary,
loosen the sway bar end links bolts to ease proper positioning
of stabilizer bar.

Figure 1 shows proper placement of the steering stabilizer with
respect to the anti-sway bar when installing on a stock vehicle.

7.
Install two ½” bolts
through the holes in the
bearing mounting plate
so the threads are
hanging through the
bracket.

8. Install bearing over the sector shaft nut and bolts until it
comes in contact with the support bracket.



NOTE: the bearing block
may not be flush to the
support bracket at this
point. Install lock washer
and nut using a ¾” socket;
snug, do not tighten.





9. Tighten all bolts in the following order:

1. Sway bar mounting bolts-torque to spec.
2. Bearing bolts
3. Bearing set screw
4. End-link bolts

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Inspect the end links for excessive wear or torn boots. New
end links are available at

www.hellbentsteel.com

The idea position of the end links should be vertical, for
proper function and life span of end-link bushings. If your
end-links are positioned at a forward/backward angle it may
be necessary to install the HBS Anti-Sway Bar Drop Bracket
kit.
