Hotchkis 22429 2008 Scion xB Sport Sway Bars - Manual (Page 5)

1R
Raising Car
Removal of the rear sway bar should be done at ride height, so the vehicle must be raised by
a flat alignment style rack, or place the rear of the vehicle on ramps and securely block the
front wheels.
2R
Attach Sway Bar Ends to Shock Mount
Remove lower shock bolts, lift sway bar into position and re-attach lower shock bolts. Do not
tighten yet.
3R
Attach Sway Bar to Torsion Beam
Apply grease to the new bushings with the supplied grease, and install onto sway bar. Lift the
sway bar into position, and install the V-bolt along with the bottom support plate. Make sure
the bar and bushings are centered and as far outboard as possible, now you can first tighten
the bushing brackets, and then tighten the lower shock bolts.
When tightening the shock bolts,
apply a generous amount of thread locking compound on the bolt.
