Installation Summary

Overview & Difficulty: Easy DIY installation requires basic hand tools, a jack, and jack stands, taking approximately 1–2 hours. Elevate the vehicle's front subframe to unload the control arms, then remove the factory sway bar and end links. Apply grease to the polyurethane bushings and mount them with the metal straps. Torque the frame brackets to 35 ft-lbs. Finally, install the new end links, lowering the car to ride height before tightening to roughly 14 ft-lbs or until the bushings compress to washer diameter.
