Citerat;
1. Park the vehicle on a smooth , level concrete or asphalt
surface.
2. Remove the drivers side tire, if already remove proceed to
step 3.
3. Disconnect the drag link from the steering arm by
removing the cotter pin, loosening the nut several turns and
tapping the nut with a rubber mallet until the stud comes
loose from the arm.
4. Remove the three nuts that hold the steering arm to the
knuckle housing.
5. Clean mounting surface thoroughly and install the new
Rough Ccuntry steering arm using the new nuts supplied
in the kit. Torque nuts to 90ft/lbs.
6. Inspect the drag link assembly. If the drag link is worn or
the ball joint grease boot is torn, replace the assembly.
Install the drag link onto the steering arm but do not
tighten. It may need to be adjusted to allow the wheels to
travel from stop to stop without binding the steering
mechanism.
7. Replace the wheel/tire and set the wheels pointing straight
ahead.
8. Remove the drag link from the steering arm.
9. Turn the steering wheel all the way from left to right, counting the number of turns. Then turn the wheel back half the
number of turns.
10. Adjust the drag link to fits loosely in the steering arm. Tighten the nut and install the new cotter pin. Check steering again
and adjust if necessary.
11. Double check for tightness of all hardware and inspect assembly periodically.
1. Check all fasteners for proper torque. Check to ensure there is adequate clearance between all rotating, mobile,
fixed and heated members. Check steering gear for interference and proper working order. Test brake system.
2. Perform steering sweep. Check to ensure brake hoses have sufficient slack and will not contact rotating,
mobile, or fixed members, adjust lines/brackets to eliminate interference and maintain proper working order.
Failure to perform inspections may result in component failure.
3. Bump stops and extensions must be in place on all vehicles! Note: allowing suspension to over extend by
neglecting to install or maintain stops and extensions may cause serious damage to OE and related components.
4. Re torque all fasteners after 500 miles. Visually inspect components and re torque fasteners during routine
vehicle service. Readjust headlights to proper settings if applicable.
