Toyota 48830-60030 Rear Stabilizer Link Assembly, Driver Side

Lift the rear of the car and safely support it on jackstands; place chocks in front of the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. It is possible to pull out the nuts of sway bar link and both of links and to throw away the nuts with fastening the link on the frame. Next, the bushing bracket bolts and bracket must be removed to disconnect the sway bar from the rear axle, before noting the position of the bushing stopper on the sway bar though. Next, unbolt the sway bar and clean the Sway Bar Bushing of any dirt or debris; if any show signs of cracking, tearing or have significant signs of wear, then it's time for replacement. Looseness of the balljoint on the lower end of each link or the existence of any sign of excessive wear should be checked on the link and suspension setup test by turning the balljoint with an inch-pound torque wrench and comparing the rotational torque to the specified value. When fitting the new rubber bushings in the location where the sway bar was, place the bushing stopper against them. Removal is carried out in the reverse sequence, after which a new link-to-frame nut should be applied, and all the fastenings should be tightened to the specified torque.
