6. Install the Strut Rod
We’ll start by bolting in the front end first. Following the diagram below to see
the order of parts.
Install the large flat-cut washer onto the clevis stud and insert the front mount into the
k-member hole.
If needed, rotate
the flat-cut washer to alleviate any clearance issues with the sheet
metal.
You will notice that the k-member hole is much larger than the clevis stud. This is ok,
since you will be inserting 2 spacer washers from the front side of the k-member to take
up the gap. The spacer washers will fit inside
the k-member sheet metal.
Once the spacers are in place, install the large round washer and 5/8” nylock nut.
Moving on to the rear mount, insert the rear stud into the lower control arm hole. Do
not install the stud nut at this time.
