Tuff Country 24850 - Ford 91-94 Explorer 4 box kit - Manual (Page 7)

Special note: Part # 24850 does not include the front coil
springs. Part # 24861 is the part # for the front coil
springs and needs to be ordered as a separate part #. If
you have not already ordered the new front coil springs,
please contact Tuff Country or your local Tuff Country
dealer and order the new front coil springs.
17. Working on the driver side, remove the stock mounting
hardware that connects the stock coil spring to the axle.
Save the stock hardware but the coil spring may be discard-
ed. Repeat procedure on the passenger side.
Tuff Country highly recommends installing an aftermar-
ket pitman arm once part # 24850 has been installed. If
you have not already ordered your new pitman arm,
please contact Tuff Country or your local Tuff Country
dealer and order part # 70200.
18. Working on the stock pitman arm, remove the stock cot-
ter pin and castle nut. Save the stock hardware. Carefully
remove the stock tie rod from the stock pitman arm. Special
note: Take special care not to damage the stock tie rod
dust boot. If the stock tie rod dust boot looks damaged,
it would be a good time to replace it.
19. Remove the stock hardware that connects the stock pit-
man arm to the sector shaft on the stock steering box. Save
the hardware. Using a pitman arm puller, carefully remove
the pitman arm from the stock location. The pitman arm may
be discarded.
20. Locate the new pitman arm. Locate the stock hardware
that connected the stock pitman arm to the sector shaft on
the steering box. Install the new pitman arm into the stock
location and secure using the stock hardware. Make sure to
use thread locker or loctite and torque to 145 ft lbs.
