Created on: 2020-03-27

Watch this video to learn how to install new sway bar links on your 2005-14 Ford Mustang.

Tools needed

  • 21mm Socket

    Torque Wrench

    18mm Wrench

    18mm Socket

    1/2 Inch Impact Gun

Once you have your vehicle safely raised and supported, you're going to remove all five lug nuts using a 21-millimeter. Carefully remove the wheel. Set it aside. The next thing we're going to do is remove the sway bar link from right here. If you use an 18-millimeter wrench, you can come right inside the backside there and grab onto that. And then an 18-millimeter socket and remove these too. Now, it's time to take off the lower portion of the sway bar link. I'm just gonna use my 18-millimeter right there. And I'm gonna try to get my 18-millimeter socket with ratchet on the backside where the nut is. Okay.

Awesome. Just get the sway bar link in here. Put those nuts on there. Okay. Now, let's bottom these out. Use your 18-millimeter right there, 18-millimeter on this side as well, snug them up. Do the same to the lower. Let's torque this to 85 foot-pounds. Do the same to the lower one if possible. If it's not possible, just take your 18-millimeter wrench and give it a couple bonks with your rubber mallet so it's nice and snug. Let's get the wheel back up on here. Start on all your lug nuts and then bottom them out. Now, we're going to bring this down and torque it to manufacturer's specifications. Now, with the vehicle's wheel touching the ground but most of the weight of the vehicle off of it, we're going to torque these in a star pattern to 100 foot-pounds. Torqued.
