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. A new part with the same part number, or an equivalent part, must be installed if installation is necessary. Do not use a new part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified to make sure of correct retention of these parts.

1. Remove the spring.





2. Disengage the rear wheel speed sensor wiring clips.





3. Remove the bolt and detach the LH rear parking brake cable retainer from the arm.





4. Remove the nut, the flag bolt, and the lower arm.
^ Discard the nut and flag bolt.

5. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
^ Use a new nut and flag bolt.
^ Do not tighten the lower arm-to-body nut until the suspension is at ride height during spring installation.
