ING29600-012103
Part Number 29600
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: This part is intended to replace the factory installed fixed camber/caster washers located on the front upper
control arm mounting bolts.
1. Following the owner’s manual procedures, safely raise and support the front of the vehicle.
2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly.

arm nuts at the same time.

6. Install Ingalls New slotted washer in the same fashion as the factory washer was installed. The indexing groves
should be facing downward.

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.
