Maintenance, Service, and Repair
Suspension
Page 3
Damaged or worn spring bolts or hangers could result in sudden failure
of the suspension causing severe bodily injury or property damage.
1. Make sure the key-switch is in the “OFF” position, then remove the
key.
2. Place the forward-reverse switch in the center “OFF” position.
3. Set the park brake.
4. Place blocks under the rear wheels to prevent vehicle movement.
5. Disconnect the main positive and negative cables at the batteries.
Always use a lifting strap, hoist, and jack stands, of adequate capacity
to lift and support the vehicle. Failure to use lifting and support devices
of rated load capacity may result in severe bodily injury.
If a spring has failed or is fatigued, then it is recommended that both front springs are replaced as a set.
HINT : In most vehicles it will be easier if the springs are replaced one at a
time.
6. Raise the front of the vehicle and support with jack stands.
7. Tie up or support the front axle so it cannot fall out of the vehicle.
8. Unbolt the spring from the front axle beam.
9. Support the spring so that it cannot fall out of the vehicle.
10. Remove the lower bolt from the spring hanger.
11. Remove the spring bolt from the other end of the
spring and remove the spring from the vehicle.
12. Inspect the spring bolts and spring hangers for signs
of wear or damage. If any wear or damage is found,
then they must be replaced.
13. Install the new spring in reverse order.
14. If the spring hanger bolts do not have a grease fitting,
lube the spring bushings before installing the spring.
15. Torque the spring hanger bolts to 20 ft-lbs.
16. If the spring bolts are equipped with grease fittings,
lube them at this time.
17. Lower the vehicle.
18. Reconnect the main positive and negative cables at the batteries.
19. Remove the blocks from behind the wheels.
20. Release the parking brake and test drive the vehicle.
