7. Install the axle bracket bridge assembly. This assembly is installed underneath the axle and is
indexed off the bottom of the OEM leafspring pads. The upper bar axle mounts are then set on top of
the OEM leafspring pads and the entire assembly is bolted together with the supplied grade 8 bolts,
washers and nuts. A second set of hands is helpful during this procedure. NOTE: At some point
during the installation the OEM tailpipe will need to be removed for clearance. A custom tailpipe or a
turndown out of the muffler will be necessary to properly complete the AirBar installation. If you let the
exhaust blow back on the ailines and airsprings, damage will certainly result.
8. Remove the 3 bolts in the right hand corner of the axle cover. Bolt on the panhard bar axle mount.
The other side will bolt to the frame bracket.
