(Coil Over)
Read and understand these instructions before starting any work
!! SUPPORT VEHICLE WITH JACK-STANDS, BEFORE DOING ANY WORK !!

 

*APPLY ANTI-SEIZE COMPOUND TO THREADS TO AVOID SEIZING OR GALLING OF THREADS
*APPLY THREAD LOCKING COMPOUND TO APPLICABLE FASTENERS
1. Start by raising the car and supporting it with jack stands, remove all unused
brackets from the vehicle (Front leaf spring bracket, rear leaf
spring hanger saddle, leaf springs & rear end). When removing
brackets drill out all the factory spot welds and pry the brackets off. (Do
not forcefully remove the bracket as it will damage the sheet metal).
Prepare the rail section making sure that the surface is free from any left
over spot welds or un-even surfaces.


**The TCI Rear 4-link Kit comes equipped with an upper shock block-off plate. Remove the original upper
shock plate and replace it with the one in the kit. Fasten with the supplied 5/16-18 x1” Hex Head Bolt.

2. Using the 3 mounting points on the factory body, mount the 4-link
bracket into position.
3a
3. Once the bracket is in position, mark the lower 4-Link bar mounting
hole so that the sheet metal won’t interfere with the fastener. Scribe a 1
1/2” diameter mark & trim to make sure the bolt and washer will clear
the sheet metal.
4. Once the bracket is positioned in place take a reference measurement to
any body hole (ie. The rear most mounting point hole for the front clip;
and duplicate measurement for the other bracket) Referencing more
than one point will result in a more accurate measurement. This will
ensure that the 4-link bracket is mounted in the same location on the unibody.

Height Nylox through the Uni-body one at a time (From front to rear of
vehicle) and position the re-enforcement plate in place. Doing this will
make sure that the bracket will sit evenly on the mounting surface. After
all the bolts are inserted into the bracket began tightening the bolts
starting from the front and working towards the rear of the car.
