Removal and Installation
CAUTION: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect performance of vital components and systems and their failure can result in
major service expense. New fasteners must be installed with the same part number or an equivalent part if installation is necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of correct retention of
these parts. Orientation of the fasteners is also important on all rear suspension arms. Make sure the fasteners are installed in the same direction as they
were in when removed.
1. WARNING: The electrical power to the air suspension system must be turned off prior to hoisting, jacking or towing an air suspension
vehicle. Failure to do so can result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs, which can result in shifting of the vehicle during
these operations.
Turn the air suspension service switch off
2. For reference during the installation procedure, measure the distance from the lip of the fender to the center of the wheel hub with the vehicle in a
static level ground position.
3. Raise and support the vehicle.
4. Remove the nut and bolt.
