Installation Instructions

1988–1998 Chevy C1500 lowered with DJM 4-inch control arm kit
  1. Install the upper ball joints and grease fitting. Lower ball joints are installed at the factory — only the grease fitting needs to be installed on the lower.

  2. Lube the fittings. Make sure the predrilled grease holes, grease fitting, and twin sleeve accept the grease and move smoothly.

  3. The upper spring tower may need to be trimmed to make installation of the driver's side spring easier. 1/4" of extra clearance is all that's needed.
