    Installation of this product requires  fabrication and welding skills.  If you are not confident of your abilities please have this installed at an off road shop.

     

    Tools required :   Socket Set,  Jack, Jack stands, Cutting tool (example: Cut off wheel, sawzall, Plasma cutter) Welder, Angle finder

     

    Step 1:

     Make sure you have all the correct parts. If you are missing parts of have incorrect parts Contact Artec Industries Immediately at (855) 278-3299 M-F 8:30am-5pm MST.

     

    Step 2:

    Place Wheel chocks at the front wheels and lift the rear of the vehicle with a jack .  Place jack stands under the rear axle and lower jeep securly onto the jack stands.

     

    Step 3: 

    Remove the rear sway bar from the vehicle.

     

    Step 4:

    With the sway bar removed from the vehicle,   Use an angle finder to measure the angle of the mount.  Record that number for later. 

     

    Step 5:

    Use your cutting tool of choice to remove the existing sway bar mounts,  Clean and prep the area for welding with a wire wheel or flap disk.

     

    Step 6:

    Place sway bar mounts  between the differential and rear coil spring mounts. You should have 5-3/4" between the center of the coil spring mount and center of the sway bar mount. Use your angle to match the angle of the original mount and weld into position.  Repeat this step on the opposite side. 

     

    Step 7:

    Prime and paint the sway bar brackets and axle tubes where you cleaned for welding (We found rustolem products gave us the best results)

     

    Step 8: 

    Reinstall the rear sway bar onto the vehicle and torque bolts to 40ftlbs.

     

    Step 9:

    Raise vehicle off of the jack stands and remove them from under the vehicle. Lower vehicle back onto the ground.

     

    Step 10:

    Congratulations now you are done.

     Check all bolts after 50 miles for tightness re-torque if needed .
