Attention! When installing the stabilizer bar, it is necessary to use new nuts securing the stabilizer clamps.
Removing
Unscrewing the nut that secures the clamp, which, in turn, secures the anti-roll bar to the lower front suspension arm
Unscrewing the nuts that secure the clips, which in turn secure the anti-roll bar to the body brackets
1. Apply the parking brake, then raise the front of the vehicle and support it on stands. Remove the front wheels.
2. Unscrew the screws and remove the engine mudguard from the bottom of the engine compartment.
3. Apply marks that determine the relative position of the mounting bushings and the anti-roll bar.
4. Unscrew the nuts and remove the clips securing the anti-roll bar to the lower front suspension arms (see fig. Unscrewing the nut that secures the clamp, which, in turn, secures the anti-roll bar to the lower front suspension arm).
5. Remove the nuts and bolts securing the stabilizer bar clips to the body brackets and remove the clips (see fig. Unscrewing the nuts that secure the clips, which in turn secure the anti-roll bar to the body brackets).
6. Remove the anti-roll bar from under the vehicle.
7. Check the anti-roll bar for wear and mechanical damage. Pay special attention to the condition of the stabilizer mounting bushings.
Installation
1. If removed, install the stabilizer bar mounting brackets to the body and secure with bolts, tightening them to the required torque.
2. Moisten the stabilizer mounting bushings with soapy water and install them in place.
3. Align the rubber pads according to the previously marked marks and install the anti-roll bar to the vehicle.
4. Install the anti-roll bar rubber pads to the brackets and install the clips to them. Insert the clamp bolts and screw new nuts onto them, but do not completely tighten them.
5. Install the rubber pads located on the edges of the anti-roll bar on the lower front suspension arms, install clips on them and secure with new nuts, tightening them to the required torque.
6. Check that the marks made before removing the stabilizer are aligned and tighten the nuts securing the stabilizer clips to the body brackets to the required torque.
7. Install the body mudguard.
8. Install the wheels, then lower the vehicle to the ground and tighten the wheel bolts to the correct torque.
