WORK SAFELY!

Installation of these control arms requires

working underneath vehicle.

USE EXTREME CARE AND CAUTION WHEN

WORKING UNDERNEATH VEHICLE.

Never get near or under vehicle until you are

confident that it is safely supported and will not

move or fall from its raised position.

DO NOT USE A BUMPER JACK.

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

1. Place vehicle on a solid level surface to ensure

safe installation

2. Place wheel blocks in front of and behind both front

wheels to prevent movement in either direction.

3. Raise rear of vehicle and support flat area of chassis

in front of lower control arm attaching point using approved automotive support stands having adequate load capacity. DO NOT put support stands under the axle housing. Note: Raise vehicle high enough to allow adequate clearance for coil spring removal.

CAUTION

CONFIDENT THAT VEHICLE IS SECURE AND SAFELY

SUPPORTED!

CONTROL ARM ASSEMBLY

1. Install grease fittings (supplied) into each end of

control arm by threading fittings into drilled hole of bushing eyelet. Use care not to damage fittings

CONTROL ARM INSTALLATION

NOTE

We recommend working on

only one side at a time.

1. Remove both rear wheels.

2. Apply penetrating oil or rust release lubricant to front and rear mounting bolts of upper control arms.

4. Using a wrench, remove one lower control arm. DO NOT discard the bolts and nuts, they may be reused.

5. Lightly lubricate threads of short adjustable end. Install hex jam nut, and assemble. Adjust Lak

ewood control arms to same length as factory arm using center to center location of mounting bushing holes as your measurement point.

Note: Clean and lubricate axle and chassis control arm mounting brackets with a good quality chassis grease to ease installation.

7. Tighten front and rear control arm mounting bolts to 80 ft./lb. torque.

Note: The adjustable feature of this arm enables you to correctly locate the rear end in relation to the chassis and to compensate for altered ride heights.

8. Follow the same above procedure for installation

of Adjustable Control Arm on other side of vehicle.

9. Lubricate control arm bushings with a good quality

chassis grease.

necessary. The angle between the drive shaft and the rear end yoke must be between 4 and 6 degrees down.

12. With pinion angle set, tighten all fasteners securely.

13. Install wheels and properly tighten lug nuts to

wheel manufacturers specifications.

14. Carefully remove support stands and lower vehicle

to ground.
