SAFETY: BEFORE STARTING YOUR INSTALLATION, BE SURE TO SET PARKING BRAKE AND CHOCK TIRES.
NOTE: TO EASE INSTALLATION AND TO PROPERLY ADJUST BAR, THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE MUST BE
ON THE SUSPENSION, AS IF DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. DO NOT RAISE VEHICLE BY FRAME.
NOTE: THIS UNIT IS DESIGNED TO MOUNT TO THE REAR OF THE AXLE TUBES WITH THE ARMS OF THE BAR
TOWARD THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE HUMP SHOULD TILT SLIGHTLY DOWNWARD.
1. Lubricate D-shaped poly-bushings and place them onto straight areas of the bar on each side of center hump. After installing D-bushings
onto bar, place U-plates on D-bushings.
2. Hold bar up to axle and locate the position on the axle tubes to mount U-bolts. When installing U-bolts, be sure to put U-bolts under
any brake lines, wires or hoses on the axle to avoid any possible damage.
3. Place saddle brackets on axle by inserting legs of U-bolts into the holes in saddle brackets. Raise bar and place D-bushings on saddle
brackets by inserting legs of U-bolts through holes in U-plates. Install flat washers and nuts provided on U-bolts. LEAVE LOOSE AT
THIS TIME to allow for adjustment later.
4. Locate existing spare tire crossmember on vehicle frame. Place square U-bolt over frame rail just behind crossmember with legs of U-
bolt pointing downward. If equipped with resonator, it may be necessary to move U-bolts back 1” to allow end link clearance to
resonator.
