WARNING: Do not work on or under a 
vehicle supported only by a jack. Always 
support the vehicle on safety stands.

WARNING: Make sure the axle cannot move 
when the damper is disconnected. The 
damper limits the downward movement of 
the axle. If the axle is not restrained, 
disconnecting the damper will allow 
unrestricted movement which may cause 
personal injury or damage to equipment.

sensor harnesses  are not damaged when 
lowering front axle.

in spring seats and raise front axle. Fit bolts 
securing both dampers to front axle and tighten 
to 45 Nm (33 lbf.ft). 

4. Ensure washer is in place on lower ball joint of 

each anti-roll bar link, then connect lower ball 
joints to axle. Tighten nuts to 100 Nm (74 lbf.ft).
