For 2009 and earlier models, the removal process of the front sway bar kit involves loosening the wheel lug nuts, raising the vehicle, supporting it on jackstands, and removing the wheels. The intermediate shaft pinch bolt from the steering shaft is removed, followed by the stabilizer bar link nut and brackets. The rear part of the subframe is supported with a floor jack, and the two rear subframe mounting bolts are removed. The subframe is slowly lowered to detach the sway bar kit, making sure to separate the steering gear input shaft and shaft coupler without binding and detaching any wiring harnesses or hoses that may come under tension. The kit is carefully removed from the left side of the vehicle.

To remove the bushings and links, start by loosening the front wheel lug nuts and raising the front of the vehicle. Support it securely on jackstands and remove the front wheels. Then, remove and discard the nuts that attach the upper and lower ends of the sway bar links to the strut/coil spring assembly and to the sway bar. Detach the links. Lower and support the subframe enough to access the sway bar mounting brackets. Remove the bolts and nuts from the sway bar bushing brackets. Inspect the retainer bushings for cracks and tears. If any bushing is damaged, replace the sway bar and bushings as a set. Also, if the ballstuds on the links are loose or worn, replace the links. To install, guide the sway bar kit into place and install the bushing bracket bolts, tightening them to the specified torque. Then, install the links and tighten the link nuts to the proper torque. To remove the sway bar kit, detach the links from the bar and remove the sway bar bushing bracket bolts. Twist the sway bar kit up and remove it through the right wheel opening. The installation process is the reverse of the removal procedure.

To install, lubricate the bushings with vegetable oil and tighten the link and bracket fasteners to the specified torque. Install the wheels, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts to the torque specifications.
