6)
Loosely tighten the hardware connecting the end links and brackets to the bar. Leave just
enough “slop” in the connections to allow the bar to rotate easily but still be fairly tight.
7)
With the hardware loosely tightened you can now rotate the bar up, so that the brackets are
resting against the frame. Once the brackets are in place use a scribe or similar tool to mark
each hole for drilling. Drill out the holes for the brackets to 7/16” diameter. To accurately
determine the location of the holes the end links must not be loose enough to move left or right.
Make certain the axle is at its normal driving height for an accurate fit
.
8)
Once the holes are drilled, use a coat hanger to loop around one stud on the retainer bracket.
Slide the bracket in through the rear end of the frame until the studs fall through the holes. Hold
one stud and push the other stud back through the hole to slide the coat hanger loop off the
stud.
