1
. ENSURE TRUCK IS IN GEAR OR IN PARK, SET PARKING BRAKE, TURN OFF ENGINE, AND CHOCK TIRES.
2
. Using an 18mm, disconnect the factory steering stabilizer from the drag link. Hammer the tapered end out of the drag link, then use
a 15mm to remove the bolt holding it to the frame bracket.
3
. Install the center bracket: This bracket attaches to (2) front differential cover bolts; this will require moving a tag on the differential.
Use a 15mm to remove the (2) bolts. After removing the tag, install the bracket using the stand off spacers between bracket and
cover. If desired, the tag can be placed in front of the bracket. Replace the (2) factory bolts with the supplied 3/8” flanged bolts.
[Torque to 33 ft-lbs]. Use the 7/16” U-bolt to clamp the bracket around the axle housing. Install the U-bolt facing downward using the
supplied 7/16” lock nuts and washers. [Torque to 47 ft-lbs]
4
. Install the billet aluminum clamp on the driver’s side tie rod end with the shield facing out and within 1/8” from the flat side of the
tie rod. Place the clamp between the adjuster and the bend in the tie rod. Install the 1/2x2” long bolts through the bottom hole of the
rear clamp into the threaded hole on the front clamp.
[FIGURE 1]
5
. If installing steering stabilizers on a wide track axle Super Duty, you must mount the shocks with the bodies pointing towards the
wheels (unless 64036 spacer kit is used). Use the supplied 1/2x3.5” bolt making sure to install the supplied washers on both sides of
the shock sleeve. Use the (169003) spacer between the washer and billet clamp. If you do not have a wide track axle, you can mount
the stabilizers in either direction. [Torque to 75 ft-lbs] alternating between the top and bottom bolt to make sure the gap is equal on
