Please follow instructions carefully:
1. To begin installation, block the rear tires of the vehicle so
that the vehicle is stable and can’t roll backwards. Safely lift
the front of the vehicle and support the vehicle with a pair of
jack stands. Place a jack stand on both the driver and the
passenger side. Special note: Place the jack stands on
the body mounts, this will allow for the new extended
radius arms to be installed. Next, remove the front wheels
and tires from both sides.
2. Working on the driver side, remove the stock shock from
the stock upper and lower mounting location. Save the stock
lower mounting hardware. The upper mounting hardware
and shock may be discarded. Special note: Some vehicles
come stock with multiple shocks in the front end. Repeat
procedure on the passenger side.
3. Working on the driver side, remove the stock sway bar
from the frame mounting location. Save the stock hardware.
Now remove the stock sway bar from the stock end link and
save the stock hardware. Repeat procedure on the passen-
ger side. Set the stock sway bar aside.
5. Place a pair of hydraulic floor jacks under the front driver
and passenger side twin eye beam axles. Carefully raise up
on the hydraulic floor jacks until they come into contact with
the front twin eye beam axles. Also, place a pair of hydraulic
floor jacks under the driver and passenger side stock radius
arms. Carefully raise up on the hydraulic floor jacks until they
come into contact with the stock radius arms.
6. Working on the driver side stock radius arm bracket,
remove the stock hardware or the stock rivets that connect
the bracket to the frame rail. The stock hardware and rivets
may be discard. Repeat procedure on the passenger side.
Special note: Using a die grinder and making a cross cut
on the rivets then using a air chisel will help make the
removal of the rivets easier.

front and rear twin eye beam axles and the stock radius
arms.

the stock location and save the stock hardware and coil clip.
