With the steering assembly hanging free, you should now be able to remove the stock sway bar.

Leave the steering loose for installation of the Hotchkis sway bar at a later step.

5)

Every vehicle should have two holes on the passenger side and four holes on the driver’s side
in the frame from the factory for mounting a stock sway bar. Use the front factory holes to bolt
the new sway bar retainer bracket in place. With the bracket bolted in to locate the second hole,
drill out the second hole. Use the 3/8” bolts from hardware kit #1735 to install the sway bar.

Use the power steering bracket included in the kit and installation pictures to determine which hole

must be moved or what holes may need to be added on the driver’s side.

6)

Use the grease pack provided to put a heavy coat of grease on the inside of the sway bar
bushings. Place one bushing over the passenger side of the sway bar and lift it into place on top
of the steering rack. Use one of the bushing retainer brackets to keep the bar from falling out
from the passenger side.
