1)
Look at the way the shock tower brace is assembled in the box. This is how the brace
will be assembled in the vehicle. This installation will be performed entirely in the engine
compartment of the vehicle.
2)
Use a 5/8” wrench and socket to remove the brackets from the shock tower brace.
3)
Take a 15mm wrench or deep socket and remove the front two upper shock assembly
nuts, on each side, from the shock towers. DO NOT touch the rear nut. You only need
to remove the front two nuts.
4)
Take out the spacer plates and set each one over the top of the shock tower studs.
These spacers are necessary to allow the brace mounting brackets to sit flat on the
shock tower brace.
