Spohn 745 - Manual (Page 2)

7. Locate the shock mounting bolts in the engine bay. The rear two are bolts, the
front two are studs. Remove the front two nuts using a 15mm wrench and the
two rear bolts using a 13mm wrench. Pull the upper a-arm and the
shock/spring assembly out of the wheel well.
8. Locate the lower a-arm mounting bolts. The location of these bolts in the k-
member dictates the alignment settings. Mark the position of the bolts and
then loosen them using a 21mm wrench. Remove the a-arm.
9. Install the Spohn lower a-arm, set the a-arm position to your previous marks
and tighten the bolts. Lift the a-arm up and down to ensure that it has full
range of motion without any binding. Make sure that the rear del-sphere end
is horizontal in the mount.
10. Re-install the upper a-arm and shock/spring assembly into the upper shock
tower.
11. Using the supplied 3/8" bolts and nuts, bolt the lower shock mount to the
lower a-arm.
12. Reinstall the spindle/rotor assembly and install new cotter pins. Reinstall the
caliper.
13. Plug the ABS sensor in and route the ABS wire along the back tube of the A-
arm. Zip tie the wire to the a-arm.
14. Check to make sure all bolts are tight and reinstall wheels/tires.
15. We recommend that you take your vehicle for a front end alignment.
NOTES:
New lower a-arm mounting hardware is recommended from Spohn Performance (Part
# 987). Our locking star washers will ensure your alignment position stays locked in
place.
Will not work with KYB shocks.
