Re: sway bar installation.

I took a look at the picture on their web site and it looks like a standard style bar. Straight part bolts to frame in front of axil using the U shaped clamps and matching bushings. The ends with the holes get "Links" that run down to brackets mounted to the axil. I would guess that the brackets mount to the spring u bolts. I would mount those first, make sure you have the right one on the right side etc. Then mount the bar to the frame so that the links are straight up and down and the bar ends should be parallel to the road. Good luck.
