Installation Procedure
Measure the vehicle and record all measurements on the installation helper before beginning any work.
Remove the front and rear spring eye bolts and remove the spring from the truck. Keep the bolts — they will be reused to reassemble the springs.
Reinstall the leaf spring under the axle. Place the new axle locator bracket on top of the spring with the off-center hole toward the front of the vehicle. This will center the rear axle and pull the drive shaft back from the transmission slightly. Lower the rear axle into the new axle supports. Rotate the axle to the desired pinion angle.
Install the new U-bolts and 5-hole spring plates on the bottom of the springs. Cross-torque the u-bolts.
Place the new upper axle plates with the pin down on top of the axle. Install the 5/8" x 3-1/2" bolt forward and the 5/8" x 4" bolt to the rear, with one flat washer on top of the upper plate and one on the bottom of the axle locator.
Remove the factory bump stop bracket from the frame. Drill a 3/8" hole and install the new bump stop to the frame.
Install the new rear shocks and tighten all hardware.
