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.
