Installation review:
1. Torque all the bolts to factory specifications. Be sure to double check your work.
2. Test drive and note the location of the steering wheel.
3. Adjust the drag link to center the steering wheel if necessary.
4. Align the vehicle as soon as possible. Set to minimum factory caster angle (3-4.5
degrees positive) and factory toe-in specifications.
5. Supplied Alignment plate kit is provided, as an aid to your alignment technician,
if needed to achieve proper caster adjustment.
NOTE: Red arrow is front of vehicle. Red outlines are the location tabs in
the factory bracket. Material must be removed from factory bracket to
get a + or - caster change.
6. Recheck all bolts after 50 miles and again after every off road excursion.
