7. Locate the shock mounting bolts in the engine bay. The rear two are bolts,

the front two are studs. Remove the front two nuts using a 15mm wrench and
the two rear bolts using a 13mm wrench. Pull the upper a-arm and the

shock/spring assembly out of the wheel well.

8. Locate the lower a-arm mounting bolts. The location of these bolts in the k-

member dictates the alignment settings. Mark the position of the bolts and
then loosen them using a 21mm wrench. Remove the a-arm.

9. Install the Spohn lower a-arm, set the a-arm position to your previous marks

and tighten the bolts. Lift the a-arm up and down to ensure that it has full

range of motion without any binding. Make sure that the rear rod-end is
horizontal in the mount.

10. Re-install the upper a-arm and shock/spring assembly into the upper shock

tower.

11. Using the supplied 3/8" bolts and nuts, bolt the lower shock mount to the

lower a-arm.

12. Reinstall the spindle/rotor assembly and install new cotter pins. Reinstall the

caliper.

13. Plug the ABS sensor in and route the ABS wire along the back tube of the A-

arm. Zip tie the wire to the a-arm.

14. Check to make sure all bolts are tight and reinstall wheels/tires.

15. We recommend that you take your vehicle for a front end alignment.

NOTES:

New lower a-arm mounting hardware is recommended from Spohn Performance

(Part # 987). Our locking star washers will ensure your alignment position stays
locked in place.

Will not work with KYB shocks.
