Installation Procedure:
Step 1: Prior to lifting the vehicle it is recommended that you measure the stock height so that you have a base line measurement. Measure from the bottom of the wheel to the lip of the fender, as in Insert A. Position truck on a flat surface and lift vehicle by the frame so that the front wheels are off the ground. Use a floor jack and jack stands or a (2) two post lift if available.
Step 2: Remove the upper sway bar end link hardware, the lower strut mount hardware, the three (3) nuts on the upper strut mount. Loosen and remove the upper ball joint nut. Separating the ball joint from the spindle may require the use of a hammer or gear puller if available. Once separated remove the strut from vehicle. Also remove the brake caliper and secure it as to not overstretch the rubber brake line.
