5. Set the clamp bar (E) over the carriage bolts previously installed that go below the
axle and cap with two 3/8” flat washers (Z) and two 3/8”-16 nylon lock nuts (Y)
(Figs. 20 & 21).
If the vehicle has a sway bar under the axle and the carriage bolt (Q) interferes, invert the
carriage bolt.
6. Tighten the axle clamp hardware evenly until it touches the axle. Torque the axle
clamp bar bolts to 16 lb.-ft. (22Nm). Trim the 3/8”-16 x 10” carriage bolts below the
nylon lock nuts if necessary. Repeat for the opposite side.
7. Torque the leaf spring U-bolt to 10 lb.-ft. (13Nm). Once tight, the upper and lower
brackets will not be parallel and may look like they are out of alignment. This
condition is acceptable because of the way the lower bracket and upper bracket
mounts are designed. Some variance from one unit to another is considered normal.
Repeat for the opposite side.
IF NECESSARY, SLIGHTLY BEND THE HARD BRAKE LINES AWAY FROM THE
CARRIAGE BOLT (Q) TO OBTAIN CLEARANCE.
8. Raise the axle up all the way (if not already done so) and remove the jack stands or
equivalent used during the installation.
9. Once the lower bracket hardware is tight, snug the lower mounting plate/swivel cup
bracket mounting hardware with an open-end wrench (Fig. 22).
