Owners manual

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Your new CST arms come fully assembled. You should not need to adjust the position of
the heim joints. Any alignment adjustment should first be done with the adjusters on
the lower arms. If the lower arms do not provide enough adjustment to get the truck
aligned then you can adjust the upper.
2. Jack the truck up and support it with 4 jack stands under the frame. Never work under an
unsupported vehicle.

taper loose. Remove the nut. Support the spindle with a tie down to prevent damage
to the brakeline and antilock wire.

truck. You may need to bend the bottom lip of the body a little to get the bolt to clear. (
