WORK SAFELY!

Installation of these control arms requires

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

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.

3. Raise axle housing up approximately 2"

(a hydraulic floor jack is recommended for
this procedure).

4. Using a hex socket and wrench, remove one upper

control arm.

5. Install the control arm to chassis and axle

housing brackets using the mounting bolts and
nuts supplied.

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

6. Tighten front and rear control arm mounting bolts to

80 ft./lb. torque.

7. Follow the same above procedure for installation of

Lakewood Control Arm on other side of vehicle.

8. Lubricate control arm bushings with a good quality

chassis grease.

9. Install wheels and properly tighten lug nuts to wheel

manufacturers specifications.

10. Carefully remove support stands and lower vehicle

to ground.

THIS COMPLETES THE INSTALLATION.

YOU CAN NOW ROCK-N-ROLL!

IMPORTANT!

hardware is securely tightened. Use a good

sleeves properly lubricated.
