Lower the control arm down slowly, stopping the jack before binding or pinching the
brake line. Then remove the strut from the spindle by unbolting the two bolts that connect
the strut to the spindle.

stop. Put the new boot and bump stop on the strut.






5.) Remove the stock upper strut mount from the car. If mount is held with a rivet it

must be drilled out. Remove the L- Bracket from the Hotchkis Delta

 plate.


6.) Reaching into the fender well, insert the bolts upward through the holes in strut tower

through the Delta

 plate. Attach the Delta plate with the washer and nuts. Keep them

loose enough that camber can be adjusted.
