- Install brakelines and parking brake cable. Adjust parking brake cable. Install wheels. Position vehicle at normal riding height. See the RIDING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
article in the WHEEL ALIGNMENT section. Tighten the bolts securing the control arm to the body to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS at the end of this article.
