7) Slide the rear of the trailing arm into place, reinstall mounting bolt and torque both
bolts to 70 ft./lbs. Note – locating and aligning the rear pivot bolt is a little tougher
and may require the use of a small pry bar or similar tool to line up the mounting
holes correctly.
Repeat steps 5 & 6 for the opposite side of the vehicle
8) Reinstall the rear springs, making sure of proper position. (See note in step 3)
9) Remove the nut clips from the sway bar and slip them over the holes on the tabs of
the new trailing arms with the threads towards inside of vehicle. Install sway bar onto
trailing arms with the ends on the outer sides of the tabs.
10) Raise the rearend assembly, reinstall the lower shock mounting bolts and the Quad-
Shock mounts (if required). Reinstall the rear wheels. Road test and recheck all bolts
after driving a few miles.
Note – 1983 to 1985 vehicles with the original anti-hop / slapper bars will require
removal of these bars, however, due to the increased rearend stability accomplished by
these trailing arms, traction and anti-hop ability will not suffer. For this same reason,
Quad – Shocks may also be safely removed from cars so equipped for increased tire
clearance.
