FRONT PROCEDURE
NOTE: Save all factory components and hardware for reuse, unless noted.
1) PREPARE VEHICLE… Raise front of vehicle with a jack and secure a jack stand beneath each frame rail, behind the lower link arms. Ease the frame down onto the stands, place transmission in low gear or “park”, and chock rear tires. Position the jack so that it supports, but does not raise, the front axle. Remove front tires.
2) STABILIZER BAR LINKS… Disconnect the stabilizer bar links from both the bar body and frame.
3) SHOCK ABSORBERS… Remove the lower shock bolt, followed by the bolts attaching the shock tower-to-coil tower. Remove the shocks.
4) TRACK BAR… Disconnect the track bar from its upper (frame) mounting point, and rest it on the axle. It may be helpful to loosen the lower track bar bolt to relax the lower bushing.
