INSTALLATION OF HOTCHKIS PERFORMANCE
ADJUSTABLE TRAILING ARM MOUNT BRACES
ALWAYS USE CAUTION!
- AND MAKE SURE THE CAR IS SECURE ON JACK STANDS.
1)
Place the vehicle on a level surface. Block the front tires.
2)
Use a jack to lift the rear of the car until the suspension is at full droop and the tires are no
longer contacting the ground. Support the rear of car on jack stands.
3)
Place the jack under the differential. This will be used later to lower or raise the axle for ease
of installation.
4)
Use a ratchet or wrench to remove rear shock absorbers at the lower mounts. This should free
up the springs to be removed.
