4. Install the u-bolts over the axle tube and through the track bar relocation bracket, use
a flat washer and nylock nut to secure the u-bolt. On some rear axle housing there is
a weld along the front of the axle tube opposite of the track bar bracket. Grind the
weld down just were it goes under the u-bolt so that the u-bolt contacts the entire
tube.
5. Torque the 9/16 bolt to 150 ft-lbs, and the
6. Torque the 3/8” u-bolts to 30 ft-lbs.
7. Attach the track bar to the new track bar relocation bracket using the factory nut and
bolt. It helps to have some one push the back of vehicle from side to side to align the
track bar bushing to the hole in the bracket. Tighten the track bar bolt to 125 ft-lbs.
8. The track bar bolt may rub the coil spring on some applications. This is often due to
the coil spring bowing because the pinion angle has increased. Solutions to this are as
follows:
• Trim the end of the bolt sticking through the nut
• Flip the bolt around so the bolt head is adjacent to the spring
• Rotate the spring so the bolts is in between coils
• Cut and rotate the lower spring mounts on the axle
• Install polyurethane lower coil wedges
