2228,2229,30,31,32 Silverado/Sierra Installation Instructions 1/12/2011
REAR INSTALLATION INSTUCTIONS
1. Installation of this rear sway may require the partial removal of the fuel tank.
Hotchkis Performance recommends that the fuel tank be as empty as possible.
2. Raise the rear of the vehicle and place it on jack stands (not required but helpful)
3. To determine if the fuel tank needs to be moved, locate the section of the rear frame
rail where the frame mount will be located (on the driver’s side). If you are able to
place the supplied nut plate into the interior of the frame rail than proceed to step 7.
4. Build a support stand for the fuel tank using floor jacks or jack stands and some 2 X
4s. This support stand will allow the tank support straps to be removed and the tank to
be moved toward the passenger side of the vehicle.
5. Open the gas filler door on the body and remove the 2 upper Torx bolts and the lower
plastic fastener.
