Hook the hook end of the springs mounted to the front
axle over the bushing just installed in the rocker arm
assembly. Swing the front of the spring up and attach
the front mounting hole in the spring bracket with an-
other 9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolt and lock nut.
Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts.
ONE AXLE BRAKE INSTALLATION
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle.
Remove the brass plug from the port in the brass
block on the right brake caliper. Thread in the brake
hose male end and tighten to either 6-8 ft. lb. or 72-96
in. lb. of torque.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN Over tightening will cause
the brass block to crack and then leak.
Place the other end of the hose up through the hole
provided in the brake line clip bracket. Secure in place
with the U-shaped hose clip provided.
Remove the plastic cap from the end of the frame
brake line coming out of the side frame by the axle.
Carefully uncoil the brake line so that it will reach the
end of the hose just attached to the brake line bracket.
Thread the brake line fitting into the brake line hose.
Tighten.
NOTE: The axle has brake fluid installed in the calipers
and the axle line when it is assembled at the factory.
This is done to protect the inner parts of the brake sys-
tem during shipping and storage. The complete brake
system including the axle MUST be re-bled to ensure
that all air has been removed from the brake system.
For bleeding instructions see the UFP brake bleeding
manual or the ShoreLand’r Disc Brake Manual.
Fill the actuator reservoir with brake fluid and bleed
the line per the instructions in the Brake Manual.
TIRE & WHEEL ASSEMBLY
Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2”
fine threaded tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to 85-
95 ft./lb. torque using the rotation pattern as shown
in the ShoreLandr’s Owners Manual. Re-torque the
lug nuts after 50 miles driving and then periodically
thereafter.
