Description






DESCRIPTION

The stabilizer bar interconnects both front struts of the vehicle and is attached to the front crossmember (Figure 1).


Attachment of the stabilizer bar to the front crossmember is through 2 rubber-isolator cushion bushings and retainers. A double ball jointed stabilizer bar link is used to attach each end of the stabilizer bar to the front strut assemblies. All parts of the stabilizer bar are replaceable as individual components.


The stabilizer bar to front crossmember cushion bushings are split for easy removal and installation. The split in the bushings should be positioned toward the rear of the vehicle, with the square corner facing down, when the stabilizer bar is installed.
