We appreciate your business, and we hope you enjoy your product. For your benefit, please read the following instructions completely and thoroughly before attempting to install the suspension kit. Many questions we have received from customers about the installation of our products could have been easily solved by information listed in the accompanying installation guide. We want you to enjoy the product in its fully functional state, and reading this tutorial is a great first step to getting you on your way to a more rare and better handling Mustang. NOTE: Please keep all hardware you remove from your stock Mustang, as much of it will be reused to install the new suspension kit pieces. Please take caution in installing this kit; the car will be up on jack stands and the car can fall and cause serious injury if not properly placed on jack stands.

Jack up the front of the car, and place jack stands underneath the chassis members. 2. Lower the car onto the jack stands. The car should stay in this position for the entire front suspension replacement. 3. Remove five 13/16” nuts using the 1/2” air gun and 13/16” deep socket. (Figure 1) Be careful when you remove the last nut, as the wheel could fall off. 4. Remove wheel; repeat on other side of car. Figure 1 II Front Struts Removal Order of Operations: NOTE: Keep ALL hardware for installation of new suspension components. 1. Remove the two lower strut bolts using a 3/8” impact gun with a 18mm deep socket. (Figures 1 and 2) 2. Unbolt the end link from the strut using the 3/8” impact gun with the 18mm socket. (Figure 3) Obtain the following tools: •.” drive impact gun •13/16” deep socket, .” drive •3/8” drive impact gun •15mm deep socket, 3/8” drive •18mm deep socket, 3/8” drive •13mm deep socket, 3/8” drive •10mm socket, 3/8” drive Figure 1 Figure 3 Figure 2 Figure 5 3. Unbolt the brake line from the strut using the 3/8” impact with the 10mm socket. Remove the Christmas tree that holds the ABS line in place. (Figure 4) 4.
