Suspension Assembly: Removal
- With vehicle on floor, disconnect upper strut/shock mount. Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect parking brake at bracket near axle mount.
- Disconnect and plug brakelines. Leave flex hose attached to suspension. Separate brake pressure regulator spring from axle beam (if equipped). Remove nuts which retain axle beam to body.
NOTE:
DO NOT install bolts and nuts fouled with undercoating. With waxy coating on threads, true tightening torque cannot be measured. Clean or replace bolts and nuts.
