5 - Coupling Rod
• During start of production, coupling rods with two ball joints were revised to coupling rods with one ball joint and a bonded rubber bushing. The side with the bonded rubber bushing is attached to the stabilizer bar. Do not install both types together.
• Connects stabilizer to trailing link/wheel bearing housing.

• If the coupling rod has a ball joint and bonded rubber bushing, then tighten the bolt in the curb weight position.

Otherwise the bonded rubber bushing will be distorted, resulting in reduced service life. Install the bolt from the outside toward the inside.
