USE OF THIS PRODUCT IS ACCEPTANCE OF SELLER’S DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY!
By their very nature, competition components are constantly pushed to their limits. While our components
are designed to withstand intense race conditions, it is impossible to control the quality of installation or
the varying conditions in which they are used. It is for this reason that absolutely no warranty or
guarantee is either written or implied. Neither the seller nor the manufacturer will be liable for any loss,
damage, or injury – direct or indirect – arising from the use of or inability to determine the use of any
product. Before using, the user should determine the suitability of the product for its intended use, and
the user shall assume all responsibility in connection therewith. Spohn Performance, Inc. makes no
guarantee as to the legality for any specific class. Spohn Performance, Inc. makes no claims, nor does it
intend its products to be used in street driven vehicles. Spohn Performance, Inc. reserves the right to
make changes in design or add to or improve on their product without incurring any obligation to install
the same on product previously manufactured. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Spohn
Performance, Inc. harmless from any claim, action or demand arising out of or incident to the Buyer’s
installation or use of products purchased from Spohn Performance, Inc.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Lift rear of vehicle and support by frame rails. DO NOT SUPPORT BY REAREND!
2. Use jack and place under rear axle to support but do not lift.
3. Remove rear sway bar. Remove both front and rear control arm bolts and nuts
and remove control arms. The axle will shift slightly rearward. (Only swap one LCA at
a time, do each side separately)
4. Install control arms using the jack to help position the rear axle properly. Make
the bolts hand tight only at this time. Install the LCAs onto the car using the supplied
spacers on either side of the del-sphere end. If the spacers are a tight fit, simply
sand their ends until the assembly fits inside of your mounting brackets. (The LCAs
ship with the spacers wire-tied on so you know how they are to be installed) Note:
LCAs are shipped jig set at stock length.
5. Lower vehicle to regular ride height and tighten all bolts to 72 ft/lbs.
6. The poly bushings come pre-lubed. DO NOT use petroleum-based grease on your
poly bushings! Poly bushings must be lubricated with synthetic silicone based
waterproof grease. These are the manufacturer’s recommendations to prevent pre-
mature bushing wear, and will keep things "squeak-free". You can order this grease
from Spohn Performance using our Part #902. Do not over grease the bushings! You
only need a couple pumps of grease. Over greasing will cause the bushings to
balloon from the hydraulic pressure inside of the sleeve and they will fail.
7. Jam nuts are known to work loose over time. To prevent this we recommend
that after you have the panhard bar set to your desired length you apply some
REMOVABLE strength (Blue) Loctite to the threads and then tighten up the jam nuts.
8. Re-install rear sway bar.
