Rear Sway Bar Drop Brackets. Remove the factory sway
bay end links from the frame and the sway bar ,save the
hardware. Place the drop bracket onto the frame so that

to mark the center of the hole. Using a drill, drill the new
hole into the frame starting with a smaller size bit and
working up to the ½” size. Attach the bracket with the
supplied ½”x 1 ½” hardware and torque to 75 ft. lbs.
Using a drill with a 3/8” bit, drill the bottom hole through
the new bracket into the frame. Use the supplied 3/8”
hardware and install the bolts through the bracket into the
frame, torque to 30 ft. lbs. Install the end link into the
bottom of the new drop bracket with the factory hardware
and torque to 50 ft. lbs. SEE PHOTO BELOW
