INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
SYNERGY MANUFACTURING
PPM-8095 RHD JK FRONT TRACK BAR BRACE /
SECTOR SHAFT BRACE
**DISCLAIMER** The Synergy Manufacturing 8095 system is designed around a stock track bar. We cannot guarantee compliance with any other manufacturer’s track bar other than the stock one and our own 8087 track bar.
-No bump stop spacers are required if using a stock track bar or the Synergy 8087 Track Bar.
GENERAL NOTES:
These instructions are also available on our website at www.synergymfg.com.
Check the website for any updated instructions and additional photos for reference.
Bracket is designed to be bolted on but can be welded on as well if desired.
The installation of this kit can be done with simple hand tools with the vehicle
sitting on the ground under its own weight. However, it is easier to install with the front suspension drooped out.
Proper bump stop spacers are strongly recommended to prevent damage from
possible track bar / steering box contact.
Steps 1-10 covers the installation of the 8095-01 Track Bar Brace. Installation is
complete after step 10 if 8095-02 Sector Shaft Brace is not being installed.
Steps 11-22 covers the installation of the 8095-02 Sector Shaft Brace. 8095-02
cannot be installed without the 8095-01 Track Bar Brace. It is a modular system which works together to strengthen the driver’s side track bar / steering box mounting locations.
