complete re-torque is done on all bolts associated with
this suspension system. It is the customers responsi-
bility to make sure that a re-torque is performed on all
hardware associated with the system after the first 100
miles of installion. It is also the Customers responsibil-
ity to do a complete re-torque after every 3,000 miles or
after every off road use. Neglect of following these steps
could cause brackets to come loose and cause serious
damage to the suspension system and to the vehicle.
