I'm putting the front suspension back together and I dont' remember which end of the mounts goes up. Is the side that's up here the side that contacts the underside of the car?
Thanks, Kevin Attached image(s)

Yes !.
Preload the arms "backwards" a little bit. I use a small prybar against the end of the torsion tube at the front. You can use the one welded nut for the (protector cup) to pry against. It wont take 500ft lbs.. just barely load it until you feel it stop and tighten down one of the front mount bolts. This is good place to have three hands.. but you can do it with two (You can DO IT !!) << spanish accent.. B |
