Front Stabilizer Bracket Installation Note

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If the front stabilizer bracket cannot be installed by hand, install it using a vise.
CAUTION:
- The front stabilizer bracket may be deformed if it is installed using a vise. When installing the front stabilizer bracket using a vise, set the cylinder-shaped parts as shown in the figure below so that pressure is applied to the front stabilizer bracket flange, and install the front stabilizer bracket to the front stabilizer bushing.
