1 - 17P17635 Instruction Sheet
It is recommended that if you are unfamiliar with this type of work that you refer to a qualified service center specializing in this type of work.
It is also recommended that if you choose to do this work yourself that a factory service manual be obtained for the proper procedures
pertaining to removal, replacement and proper torque specifications for your vehicle. This instruction set is intended as a guideline for the
safe installation of Energy Suspension’s polyurethane bushings, once you have removed the factory components from your vehicle. Wheel
alignment is almost always disturbed when suspensions components are removed or replaced. It is recommended that you have the
alignment checked on your vehicle at a qualified alignment shop. Energy Suspension recommended that you read over all the installation
instructions and check all P/N’s and quantities in the parts list before you start. Call Customer Service at 949-361-3935 if the parts in your kit
do not match this parts list. Prior to installation, make sure that your car is in excellent mechanical condition and that there are no
suspension or steering related problems. These parts are designed to work on a car that is in good state of repair. No matter how carefully
we design our parts, this is one area we have no control over and cannot be held responsible.
PLEASE READ ALL INSTALLATION TIPS
BEFORE REMOVING ANY ORIGINAL BODY
MOUNTS!
Bushing Removal Preparations:
Ÿ Spray down all nuts and bolts used to secure the
body to frame with a rust penetrant before
attempting to remove.
Ÿ The front plastic grille must be removed to access
the #1 position body mount bolt located inside the
headlight housing (See figure #1).
Ÿ The front brake line bracket, located on the front
passenger fender well, must be un-bolted from the
fender before lifting the body from the frame (See
figure #2 on pg. 3).
Ÿ The coolant hoses running to the heater core may
need to be loosened to allow the body to be lifted
high enough to replace the bushings.
Ÿ Watch the heater core hoses as you lift the body
and keep an eye on them anytime the body is lifted
or lowered from the frame.
Ÿ The fuel filler hose and gas tank breather hose
clamps must be loosened and the hoses free to slide
down the ports of the filler neck. These hoses are
located behind a metal cover inside the body tub
(See figure #4).
Ÿ It may be easier to remove the rear bumper before
attempting to lift the body. If you try without
removing the bumper, the body may become hooked
to the inside of the bumper and lift the frame as you
are lifting the body from it.
Ÿ A twin-post lift is preferred for lifting the body from
the frame, making sure whatever is lifting the body
has enough support as to not damage the sheet
metal. ONLY lift the body above the frame enough
to slide the old bushings out and new bushings in
(See figure #3).
