INSPECTING

NOTE: Whenever a part is worn excessively,
cracked, or damaged in any way, replacement is nec-
essary.

bends; then inspect the front arm mounting brackets
for cracks and for elongated holes.
2. Closely inspect all tubing for cracks or unusual
bends.
3. Inspect the bearings, bushings, and front arm spacers
for wear or damage.
4. Inspect the shock absorber for any signs of oil leak-
age especially at the point where the shock shaft
enters the shock body.
5. Inspect the shock absorber for body damage and eye-
let weld damage (at each end) for any cracks, signs
of separation, or for unthreading.
INSTALLING
1. With the rubber bushing in the eyelet, install the axle
into the lower shock eyelet bushing assembly; then
install the two shim washers and the two spacers.

NOTE: To aid in installing the axle, apply a light coat
of lubricant to the inside of the bushing.
