Rear Installation:

1. Block the front tires and raise the rear of the

vehicle. Support the frame with jack stands
forward of the rear springs.

2. Remove the wheels and tires.

3. Unscrew the rear axle vent tube to separate

the rear brake line bracket from the rear axle.

4. Remove the shocks on both sides of the vehi-

cle. It may be necessary that you slightly
raise the axle to unload the shocks for re-
moval.

5. On the driver side, unbolt the emergency

brake line bracket from the upper spring
plate. Save hardware for reuse.

6. If your vehicle is equipped with factory

sway bar, unbolt it from the end links. Un-
bolt and remove the end links from the vehi-
cle.

7. Support the rear axle with a floor jack and

remove the U-bolts on the driver side.
Slightly loosen the U-bolts on the passenger
side.

block.

NOTE: Be sure not to over extend the

rear brake line and rear axle vent line.

the factory spring mounting bolts and remove
the leaf spring from the driver side only at
this time.

10. Disassemble leaf spring and insert the add-a-

leaves (13150-1 and 13150-2).

onto the bottom of the factory spring pack, pro-
gressively according to length. Do not install
the add-a-leaves below the factory overload
spring if the vehicle is equipped with one. See
ILLUSTRATION 10.

together using the supplied center bolt with
the head of the bolts facing down and the nut
on the top. Reinstall the spring pack to the
hangers using the OE hardware. Do not
torque at this time.

bolt on the driver side. The extra threads
will be needed to attach the OE emergency
brake line bracket.

plications. Make sure the pin fits into the
hole on the spring perch. Use your floor jack
to raise the axle to the spring making sure the
pin on the factory leaf spring assembly fits
into the hole on the lift block. Secure the
assembly with the 5/8” U-bolts (F-250: 13-
90540 or F-350 13-90560 ) 5/8”
hi-nuts (PN

brake line bracket back to the spring pack
center bolt using the supplied 10mm-1.5 nut.
