Install the washer and nut snugly, but do not fully tighten. You will need to induce some preload to position the Relocator properly. You can do this by rotating the camber bolt clock wise until you feel resistance. The Relocator should position itself snugly onto the frame.
1110 66-70 B-Body, 70-74 E-Body 7. Install A-Arm Front Mount Use hardware kit 17101 and install the split lock washer & AN washer onto each ½” socket-head bolt.

NOTE: If your mount came pre-assembled by Hotchkis, please use the spacer that was installed on the mount.
1110 66-70 B-Body, 70-74 E-Body 8. Install Other Side of A-Arm The trailing end of the A-Arm will be bolted into the stock mounting hole. Install 2 misalignment spacers. Position the A-Arm so that the other heim joint is lined up with the mounting hole. You will notice there will be gaps on each side of the joint. You will need to add spacers (included in your kit) to take up the gaps. These gaps are not consistent from car to car so you will have to use the appropriate thickness spacers on each gap.
1110 66-70 B-Body, 70-74 E-Body Once the proper spacer arrangement is achieved, insert the camber bolt through the stock mount hole and the other end will end up in the engine bay.
