Retaining Strap: Installation

Press center of stabilizer bar 0.31" (8 mm) toward axle. See Fig 1. Install retaining strap 3.94" (100 mm) to right of center, with lock facing upward. See Fig 2. If retaining strap guide is installed on axle, install retaining strap in retaining strap guide. Ensure retaining strap contacts axle and stabilizer bar.

NOTE: If the axle beam is supplied with pre-drilled holes for mounting retaining strap guide b, the guide must be used. See Fig 2. Guide b correctly positions the retaining strap and dimension a can then be ignored.
