Next you will need to free the spindle from the car by removing the wheel speed sensor
cables, parking brake cable, tie rods, ball joint nuts, and axle nuts.

Once you have all attachment points and wires removed from the spindle, remove the
spindle and wheel bearing assembly from the car. Unless you are installing new
bearings into the drag spindle you will need to transfer over the bearing from the OEM
unit to the drag spindle. You will also be transferring over all of your OEM parking
brake assembly and brackets from the OEM spindles to your drag spindles. You will
need a T55 Torx bit and something to apply heat to the bolts to loosen the loctite. Once
removed you will apply new loctite to the bolts and install to the drag spindle making
sure to torque all bolts to 96 ft-lbs.
