## NHTSA's summary

Complaint: Sway bar design \(angles\) incorrect near sway bar link bolts. Cause: Design. Correction: Redesigned sway bar by changing angles and length of sway bar. Including new, stronger sway bar link assemblies with bar. The sway bar/links are now engineered together with the correct working angles. Step 1\- Raise and support vehicle suitably with suspension and wheels in normal driving position. Step 2\- Remove sway bar to frame bolts, nuts, clamps and bushings from bar and save for reinstallation. Step 3\- Remove sway bar links from bar. Discard sway bar and links. Step 4\- Install new sway bar links \(2010847\) onto new sway bar \(2010657\) and attach to lower control arms. Assemble both sides loosely at this time. Step 5\- Sway bar is not symmetrical. Orient sway bar so ends bend down towards the sway bar link. Shown below. Step 6\- Install sway bar bushings and clamps onto new bar and bolt into place. Torque frame bolts and nuts to spec. See below. Step 7\- Torque sway bar link bolts to 15 ft lbs.
