17. Repeat steps # 11 - 16 on the passenger side strut.
18. Locate the new upper control arms. Locate (8) poly bush-
ings and (4) sleeves from hardware bag 23000NB. Install the
new bushings and sleeves into the new upper control arms.
Special note: Make sure to use a fair amount of lithium
or moly base grease before installing the new bushings
and sleeves into the control arms. This will increase the
life of the bushing as well as help prevent squeaking.

Install the new sert fittings into the new upper control arms.
Special note: Make sure not to over tighten and also
make sure that the sert fitting is facing towards the out-
side of the vehicle. This will make for easier access
when lubing them with a grease gun.

each new upper control arm and set aside.

upper control arm into the OE pockets using the OE hard-

ers from hardware bag D2P-NB. Working on the driver side,
