Start by loosening the rear wheel lug nuts, raising the rear of the vehicle, and supporting it securely on jackstands, then remove the wheels. Lower the exhaust system from the rear of the flex pipe and remove the stabilizer bar link to stabilizer bar nuts on both sides. Proceed to remove the bolts holding the stabilizer bar bushing brackets and the stabilizer bar itself. While the stabilizer bar is off the vehicle, inspect the bushings, and if they are cracked, worn, or deteriorated, the stabilizer bar must be replaced. Installation is the reverse of removal, tightening the fasteners to the specified torque values. Install the wheel and lug nuts, then lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts to the torque.

Remove the lower nut from the stabilizer link lower nut. Caution: DO NOT use power tools to remove the stabilizer link nuts. Separate the tie-rods ends from the steering knuckle. Detach the control arms from the subframe. Support the rear of the subframe utilizing a floor jack positioned in the center. Remove the power steering bracket bolt from the return line and position the line out of the way. Remove the steering gear nuts and bolts. Support the steering gear from above with a length of rope or wire. Remove the subframe bracket bolts and the subframe rear bolts, then lower the subframe about two inches. Remove the left and right stabilizer bar bracket bolts. Remove the stabilizer bar by guiding it towards the right side of the vehicle between the subframe and steering gear.
