Hotchkis 2253 Sway Bars, Set, 65-66 GM B-Body, Sport - Manual (Page 5)

8) Use the grease pack provided to put a heavy coat of grease on the inside of the sway bar
bushings. Place the bushings over the bar with the cut in the bushing towards the rear of the
vehicle. Push the bushing retainer brackets into place on the bar and bolt them into place using
the stock mounting hardware in the front holes only. Do not tighten the stock hardware.
9) With the brackets in place, install the new end links included in the Hotchkis kit at each end of
the bar to establish the proper fit of the front bar. The vehicle weight should be on the front
wheels to establish the proper ride position of the sway bar in the vehicle.
10) With the final position of the bar now determined, you will need a scribe or some other tool to
mark with. Mark the center position of the holes for the rear side of the bracket. Remove the
brackets, bushings, end links, and stock hardware. Drill the existing front mount hole out to a
7/16” diameter and drill a new rear mount hole at the same size where you marked the frame.
