20. Working on the driver side frame rail, carefully remove
the stock brake cable bracket from the frame rail. Special
note: Using a die grinder and making a cross cut on the
rivet then using a air chisel will help make the removal
of the rivet easier. Take special care not to damage the
stock cable.

21. Using the 15” mark on the side of the frame rail as a
guide and using a straight edge, scribe a mark on the bottom
of the frame rail.

22. Locate the new driver side extended radius arm reloca-
tion bracket. Place the line that was scribed on the bottom of
the frame rail in the center of the rearward hole that is in the
bottom side of the new relocation bracket. Using a pair of
vise grips, secure the bracket to the frame rail.

23. Using the bracket as a guide, carefully outline each hole
of the bracket onto the frame rail. There are (3) on the side
of the frame rail and (2) on the bottom side of the frame rail.
Remove the bracket from the frame rail and set the bracket
a side.

Repeat steps # 19 - # 23 excluding # 20 to make sure that
the holes are in the correct location before drilling into
the frame rail. This is an important step, so we want to
make sure that the extended radius arm relocation
bracket is in the correct location so when the extended
radius arm is attached to it, the twin eye beam axle is not
sitting to far forward or to far rearward.
