How-To Install Antisway Bars On 2005-2006 Ford Mustangs
4.
Apply the supplied grease to the new bushings...
5.
...and thoroughly coat the inside of the bushings, spreading the grease evenly over the entire inside surface.
6.
The 15/16-inch Hellwig front bar is notably thicker than the stock unit, which is the main reason for installation. Another reason is adjustability, which is allowed by three holes on each end. The outer hole is the mildest setting, and Hellwig suggests starting with it. Relocating the attachments to one of the inner holes will make the bar incrementally more aggressive.
7.
Installation of the new bar is easy. With the bushings in place on the bar, place it into position as shown.
8.
Push the new the U-plates into place over the existing studs.
9.
The new bushings and U-plates attach the Hellwig bar to the car using the original hardware.
10.
The original end-link hardware is used to install the Hellwig bar. As with removal, use a wrench to install the nut. However, you might be able to tighten the nut without having to hold the stud. If the stud moves, use the same procedure to tighten the nut that we used to loosen it in step 2.
11.
Following Hellwig's suggestion, we started out using the hole in the far end of the bar. Later, we can switch to another one of the two additional settings for more substantial antisway control.
12.
As we've discussed, a GT comes with a rear bar that has to be removed. This is relatively easy as removal is basically the same as with the front. We used a V-6 for this article so our car doesn't have a rear bar. On a V-6 Mustang, or once the stock rear bar is removed on a GT, begin the Hellwig rear-bar installation by attaching the axle brackets using the supplied hardware.
