links. Retain the factory shock hardware it will be reused.
14. On the rear of the vehicle unbolt the track rod from the axle and secure out of the way.
15. Carefully lower the axle with the floor jack and remove the coil springs. NOTE: It may be necessary to use a coil
spring or strut compressor to remove the stock coil springs. Be careful not to overextend the vent tube on the axle. It
may be necessary to disconnect the hose during installation and reroute the hose after installation.
16. Install the new Warrior coil springs making sure that the rubber damper is positioned in the upper mount. It will be
necessary to use a coil spring or strut compressor to install the new coil springs. Jack up the axle to compress the coil
spring and to align the track rod with the new mounting point and install the stock mounting hardware.

20. A brake line bracket is supplied with this kit for the rear of the vehicle. Remove the brake line at the frame mount. Do
not remove the rubber line from the steel line. This will cause the brakes not to function properly unless the lines are
bled. Mount the bracket to the factory location with the supplied hardware and tighten. Place the factory line at the other
end of the bracket in the slotted hole.
21. To install the transfer case, place the transmission in neutral and place a floor jack under the transmission mount skid
plate to support it.

25. Using the bolts and conical washers supplied with the kit slightly tighten the bolts. Do not fully tighten to allow for
some movement for the opposite side. Conical end of the washer must fit over the mounting hole in the cross-member.
