cant. Install the bushings on the anti-sway bar near the arms. Slide
the saddle brackets over the split bushings.
Install the anti-sway bar assembly to the flat plates.
Lift the anti-sway bar assembly into position so that the saddle
bracket holes align with the flat plate holes. Use the provided

to attach it. Tighten to 35-45 ft.-lbs. Note: for applications under
18,000lb GVWR, use the holes offset to the center of the plate.
For applications over 18,000lb GVWR, use the holes closest to the
edge of the plate (Figure 2).
