First, remove the four sway bar bracket nuts before discarding them and then proceed to discard both sway bar brackets as well as both sway bar bushings. The installation of four sway bar bracket studs requires front stud downward pressure followed by rearward motion while performing the same installation steps with rear studs but toward the front of the vehicle. Disconnect the quick-connect coupling between the fuel filler pipe tube and fuel pressure sensor line followed by unclipping the line from the fuel tank while setting it aside. Attention to detail is crucial while working on sway bars of vehicles equipped with rear air conditioning or heating systems since damage to the A/C lines and rear heater hoses is possible; perform this task with assistant assistance to remove the bar from the left-hand side. A helper should guide you to place the sway bar on the left side where you must reconnect the fuel sensor and quick connect coupling to the fuel filling pipe tube. The installation process starts by mounting four sway bar bracket studs then adding two sway bar bushings together with two sway bar brackets before tightening four sway bar bracket nuts to a torque strength of 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). The suspension should be raised using a jack until the initial measurement of hub-to-fender distance becomes aligned. The sway bar link installation requires the attachment of new link hardware while the nut gets tightened to 30 Nm (22 lb-ft). The front end of the vehicle should face the installed upper arm outboard bolts so wheel damage is avoided before installing both bolts and nuts with a torque setting of 225 Nm (166 lb-ft). End the procedure by replacing the wheel and tire.

Q: How to service and repair the rear Sway Bar Link on Ford Explorer?
A: The procedure for the repair and service of the rear sway bar and link on both the Explorer and Mountaineer starts by obtaining hub-to-fender measurement when the car rests on level ground. First, remove the wheel with tire before discarding the outboard nuts and bolts from both upper arms of the vehicle. The service requires the sway bar link grommet along with nut and link to be removed and discarded while keeping only the grommet and link. First, remove the four sway bar bracket nuts before discarding them and then proceed to discard both sway bar brackets as well as both sway bar bushings. The installation of four sway bar bracket studs requires front stud downward pressure followed by rearward motion while performing the same installation steps with rear studs but toward the front of the vehicle. Disconnect the quick-connect coupling between the fuel filler pipe tube and fuel pressure sensor line followed by unclipping the line from the fuel tank while setting it aside. Attention to detail is crucial while working on sway bars of vehicles equipped with rear air conditioning or heating systems since damage to the A/C lines and rear heater hoses is possible; perform this task with assistant assistance to remove the bar from the left-hand side. A helper should guide you to place the sway bar on the left side where you must reconnect the fuel sensor and quick connect coupling to the fuel filling pipe tube. The installation process starts by mounting four sway bar bracket studs then adding two sway bar bushings together with two sway bar brackets before tightening four sway bar bracket nuts to a torque strength of 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). The suspension should be raised using a jack until the initial measurement of hub-to-fender distance becomes aligned. The sway bar link installation requires the attachment of new link hardware while the nut gets tightened to 30 Nm (22 lb-ft). The front end of the vehicle should face the installed upper arm outboard bolts so wheel damage is avoided before installing both bolts and nuts with a torque setting of 225 Nm (166 lb-ft). End the procedure by replacing the wheel and tire.
