Initial Setup
For best performance, remove any pre-load in the sway bar while the suspension is
loaded. This is best done on a four post lift, but it is also possible to set the car down on
blocks or ramps so that the end links can be accessed while the suspension is loaded.
Disconnect the end link from the sway bar arm at one end of the sway bar. Adjust the
length of the end link so that the bolt can be slipped through the end link and the hole in
the sway bar arm without having to apply any force to the arm to get the parts to line up
perfectly.
After the end link length is adjusted to remove any preload, lock down the length by
tightening the jam nuts.
For the initial setting of the sway bars we recommend
position 2
for both the front and
rear sway bars. For most applications this will be a satisfactory setting and is a good
starting point for all cars.
