Component Box Breakdown:
Installation:
1. Park the vehicle on a flat level surface, set the emergency brake, & block the front & rear tires / wheels.
2. Measure the length of the new Skyjacker lower control arms between the center of the rod end & bushing on each control arm. Rotate the rod end as needed, being sure to keep the ends square with each other until the new Skyjacker front lower control arms measure 22 13/16" center to center & the new Skyjacker rear lower control arms measure 20" center to center.
3. Install the new Skyjacker rod end step bushings into each side of the new rod ends.
4. One at a time, remove the OEM lower control arms & install the new Skyjacker lower control arms using the OEM hardware. (See Photos # 1 & # 2) Note: Install the new front lower control arms with the offset bend toward the inside of the vehicle. Tighten each jam nut to seat against the base of the new lower control arms.
