Mercury 8G1Z-5482-A Bar Assembly - Roll

For 2009 and earlier front-wheel drive models, loosen the rear wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, remove the wheels, lower the exhaust system, and remove the sway bar. Inspect the bushings and replace the sway bar if necessary. Installation is the reverse of removal. For 2008 and 2009 all-wheel-drive models, measure the hub-to-fender lip distance, and remove the wheels, drive axles, and exhaust system. Remove the cross brace, sway bar links, and sway bar.

Place the shifter in the Neutral position. Detach the oxygen sensor harness from the rear of the subframe, then disconnect the electrical connector. If you're working on an all-wheel drive model, remove the exhaust Y pipe and the front catalytic converter. If you're working on a 2007 or earlier model, remove the rear catalytic converter.
