with the suspension hanging freely.
2. Support the axle and remove the leaf springs, shocks, pinion snubber and tail pipes. Refer to the
factory service manual for proper disassemble procedures. Keep the factory front leaf spring
mounting bolts; they will be reused.
3. On the inside of the frame rail there
are two tabs that must be ground
smooth.
4. You must also trim these grooves in
the pan at a 45 deg. angle to allow the
upper cradle assemble to slide into
place. They are located just in front of
the axle above the crossmember.
