→ Wear personal protective gear.

- Visually inspect all parts.
- Replace self-locking nuts.
- Replace all expansion screws (screws which are fitted with torque angle tightening procedure).
- Observe tightening torques → WM 4200TW TIGHTENING TORQUES FOR REAR AXLE .
Fit the anti-roll bar and secure the four mounting points evenly, in vehicle position.
Following assembly, check carefully once again that the steel flexi-pipes are not twisted! The toothed rings must be positioned on the steel flexi-pipes in such a way that they provide adequate protection in the event of contact with adjacent components.
