Installation Instructions

CAUTION: Observe proper safety and repair procedures for installation of all chassis parts. Some chassis parts require specialized tools and experience
and therefore MUST be installed by a qualified technician otherwise an unsafe vehicle and/or personal injury could result. Wear safety glasses and other
protection.

WARNING: Before beginning, check for any damaged or loose suspension connections. Loose connections here indicate worn or broken parts which
MUST BE REPLACED. Failure to replace a damaged or worn spindle and/or link may cause the wheel to separate from the vehicle, possibly resulting in
serious personal injury.

NOTE: These parts are intended for use in vehicles with abnormal alignment and are designed to replace the non-adjustable factory equipment. These
parts are not designed for installation on vehicles with suspension and/or steering systems modified for racing, competition or any other non-standard

purpose.

Determine the amount of camber change needed for correct alignment.

Refer to the Left and Right Wheel charts below to determine which setting is needed for proper adjustment.

Remove the upper ball joint cotter pin and nut.

To help prevent a tight steering condition, loosen the lower ball joint nut.

Strike the inside of the spindle near the upper and lower ball joints to break the spindle loose from the ball joint studs.

Remove the old upper bushing using a forked bushing removal tool.

Tighten the lower ball joint stud nut to 35 ft lbs.

Choose the camber correction required and rotate the inner sleeve so the correct upper box letter is aligned with the outer
bushing slot.

Install the adjustable bushing with the selected lower letter facing the FRONT of the vehicle.

10. Install the upper ball joint nut, hold bushing from rotating and torque nut to 85-110 ft lbs.
11. Finish tightening the lower ball joint stud nut to 104-146 ft lbs.

ALWAYS CHECK FOR SUSPENSION CLEARANCE

Modifying any suspension component may change other part clearances and cause binding or interferences. After installing any Ingalls’ product, the suspension
must be checked for binds or interference between all components, other arms and the chassis. Be sure that all control arms, struts and steering ends move
freely through the full movement of the suspension (springs may need to be removed to fully check component travel). Installing any Ingalls’ product on a modified
vehicle (lowered or raised) from the original factory design requires a detailed check of all suspension components and their movements. Ingalls recommends
that a trained technician install all products.
