Caution
All bolts on suspension components with bonded rubber bush‐
ings must always be tightened in curb weight position (unloa‐
ded condition).
Bonded rubber bushings have a limited range of motion.
Axle components with bonded rubber bushings must be
brought into the position they will be in when driving before they
are tightened (curb weight position).
Otherwise, the bonded rubber bushing will have tension, which
will reduce the service life.

port - T10149- , this position can be simulated on the hoist.
Before lifting the axle on one side, the vehicle must be secured
on both sides to the hoist lifting arms using Tensioning Strap -
T10038- .

is on top.
