Old Man Emu Stabilizer Install Instructions?
So my OME Stabilizer arrived yesterday with no install instructions! It comes with a large bolt, a tapered sleeve, one thin washer, two thick washers, and a lock washer. I believe it just bolts to the axle end without using any of this, it just utilizes the existing nut and bolt. It's the configuration at the tie rod end, i.e. which washer goes where, that I need. If there are no instructions a pic would be great.
And yes, I'm aware you can run w/o one but as it came off the factory floor with one I'd rather keep it that way.
And yes I know it's only a mask for death wobble but so far I've replaced the sway bar bushings, the sway bar link ends, the trackbar, all four tie rod ends, balanced the tires, aligned it, replaced all four shocks, tightened everything down, checked the steering box and its attachment bolts, replaced the brake discs. All quality Moog or KYB products. A KYB stabilizer was installed a year ago and I think it's failed, hence the replacement. All that's left are the wheel hubs, the universal joints, and the upper/lower ball joints, and they all look fine. The tires could be out of round but I really don't think so.
Any help with the pics/instructions would be greatly appreciated.

If they are well trusted take it back to them and tell them to figure it out. If there were any worn parts or parts that are out of spec, then they shouldn't have been able to align it.
