Toyota 48820-AD010 Stabilizer Link

Raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the nuts from the sway bar links and detach the links from the bar, also removing the nuts attaching the links to the steering knuckles for 4WD or Pre-Runner models, or to the lower control arms for 2WD models, then remove the links. On 2WD models, remove the rubber bushings from the top of the link, using an Allen wrench to prevent the ballstud from turning when necessary. Remove the sway bar bushing bracket bolts and brackets to separate the sway bar from the frame, noting the position of the bushing against the sleeve on the bar. Remove the sway bar kit and the rubber bushings from it, taking note of the position of the slit openings. Inspect the rubber bushings for cracks, tears, and deterioration, replacing them if worn or damaged. Check the balljoints on the ends of each link for looseness or excessive wear, measuring the rotational torque required to turn the balljoint with an inch-pound torque wrench and comparing the reading to the specified value. Install the rubber bushings against the bushing stoppers on the sway bar with the slit openings facing towards the front, and complete the installation by reversing the removal process, ensuring all fasteners are tightened to the specified torque values.
