• The control arms come assembled to the shortest length. Make any length
adjustments by only turning the adjuster sleeve so there is equal thread on the flex
joint and adjuster sleeve. Make sure the grease zerk on the flex joint is aligned
with the pinch bolt on the control arm.
• We recommend that you preset the length of the upper control arms. Start the
upper control arms at the factory length of 18.75”. Make sure the left and right
control arms are the same length.
