Kia 555112F000 Bar-Rear Stabilizer

Lift the vehicle's back up, block the front wheels, and use jackstands to support the car's rear while you loosen and remove the nuts holding the rear wheels. Take out the wheels and remove the link from the bar by using an Allen wrench on a boltstud while undoing the nut. Beginning with 1998 models, disconnect the rear strut links before proceeding. First, remove the mounting bracket that holds the Sway Bar Bushing on either side of the Sway Bar Kit, and take out the bar from the vehicle. Take off the bushings from the bar, then check them for breaks or problems. Replace those that show any signs of trouble. Peel back the Sway Bar links' loose ball joints and other damage on 1998 and newer cars, then replace them. Apply silicone or vegetable oil to the clean bushings, then put them onto the bar where they hold it. Petroleum and similar mineral-based oils must never be applied to bushings, as they break them down. You tighten all bolts back following construction guidelines, then use splashers to tighten wheel nuts to standard pressure.
