CAUTION: Although both ends of the bell crank appear to be the same, they are not. When installing the watts links or bell crank, make sure
the bell crank is properly positioned. When mounted properly, the words "BACK UP" (1) should be able to be read from the rear over the top
of the axle. If the words cannot be read at this position, the bell crank must be removed and reinstalled so that the words "BACK UP" can be
read on the upper rear of the bell crank once installed.
CAUTION: When installing and tightening the watts link ball joint nut in the following step, DO NOT allow the stud to rotate. If the stud spins
in its socket, damage to the joint can occur.
