Disassembly

In order to perform this installation the front end of the car must be off the ground. A lift works
best, but jack stands will work. No special tools are required, but a bottle jack should be used to
help relieve spring pressure on the control arm. 1)

Remove wheels, and brakes, so you’re down

to bare spindle. There is no

need to disconnect the caliper though. 2) Remove the two bolts

holding each of the factory steering arms. Save these since they will be needed to install the new
arms. Pull the steering arms away from the spindle. 3) Remove the bolt holding the steering
coupler to the steering box. 4) Remove the two bolts holding the idler arm, and the three bolts
holding the steering box. The entire steering linkage should now be free to be removed from the
car.

This kit will arrive to you pre-assembled and centered. The mounting bracket attaches to the two
rear lower control arm bolts. We provide two new longer bolts to do this. Removing the old control
arm bolts can be difficult because the tension of the coil spring. If you jack up the lower control
arm using a bottle jack or floor jack, these bolts can be removed much easier. Also inspect the
bolt holes to make sure they haven’t been elongated. This is also a good time to change the
control arm bushings if needed.
