Removal and Installation: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Nissan Armada. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION: Do not reuse the front lower link nuts at the rear suspension member.

To connect the rear load leveling air suspension hoses, the lock ring must be fully seated in the fitting. Insert the hose (B) into the lock ring (A) until the lock ring is touching the hose as shown below. Pull on the hose to check that it is securely inserted.

Check the wheel alignment. Refer to "WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTION ".
Adjust the neutral position of the steering angle sensor. Refer to "ADJUSTMENT OF STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION: SPECIAL REPAIR REQUIREMENT ".
